We have a flock of 60 or so ewes that we lamb out in March. The night time checks start in about a week. I have to say, there is something about the quietness and peacefulness of a barnyard in the middle of a warm night that I love. One night last March we had 15 lambs born under the most brilliant Northern Lights I have ever seen. I came into the house at dawn almost sorry it was over. I like raising sheep, just like small cows but way easier to handle.
