Ever had a break out? Had more than one ram jump the fence and breed some ewes and now you're left wondering who's daddy? What are your options when it comes to finding out who dad is? What are your options when it comes to breeding those surprise ewe lambs later if you chose to keep them?

Today I talk about some of those options available to you when your rams get loose in the flock and you don't know who is daddy to the lambs 145 days later.

I do not like bottle feeding if i don't have to, so if I have a ewe that could take a lamb, I will do everything in my power to get that ewe to take that lamb - even if it is not their own.

Today I talk about how I manage fostering orphan lambs, or getting a ewe to accept her own rejected lamb.

Lambing is in full swing on the farm, so let's talk lambing "kits" and supplies. What's in your kit? What's on your supply list? What do you have that I don't have?

Today Becca talks about some of the controversial things she does on her sheep farm that work for her, may not work for everyone, but always seem to raise some eyebrows.

Who else does some head turning things on their farm that works for them but others think they are strange for doing?

One again Becca let's you in on the mistakes she has made when drying off ewes and what has worked for her when drying off during milking and when she is just letting the ewes raise lambs.
