Our first single lamb

On Wednesday evening Amy had her lamb, a singe tup lamb. He had to have a little assistance coming into the world, as one of his front legs was tucked under his chest making it slightly difficult for Amy to delivery him. Thankfully Scooby was on hand to help flick the leg forward and out he popped.
We checked the last 6 ewes to make sure they were all in lamb and 2 we were unsure about are not in lamb, so they have been put out with the rest of the sheep, no need to keep them in getting extra feed. So that means we are down to the last 4 ewes to lamb and this morning we were able to dismantle one of the lambing pens to create extra room in the barn.
