Hi Jordan, the beginning of the video was great showing the sheep following the tractor with the bale. At about 1:23 into the video you could see a black and white lamb that looked like it had an injured foot. The video feed portion froze about 4:45 in when you were talking about breaking your foot. Sorry to hear about your foot especially with all of the animals you have to care for. Hope your foot heals up well and you can get back to normal.
Hi Jordan - I think something is up with your video, kinda frozen halfway through on a still frame for both my phone and computer. For Lambing - I find it take about two or three days for a lamb to get with a rotation. The first day or two are a lot of fussing. I've not lambed this early before, but I'd just about do what you said - put out a week's worth of food on a sacrifice 'holding' pasture. Hope your lambing window is tight so it's over soon. - Peter
Sorry about your foot. You might want to make 2 pens so you can unroll with no sheep around. I know the problem will still be lambs moving. They will get more used to the tractor and then be under it too. We just finished lambing here but it a barn.
Caring for ONLY the sheep at this stage is a 24/7 job. I'm 10,000 miles off and our temperature rarely reaches 0°C. Can barely imagine what the conditions really are............
Boy that sucks about your foot. I dislocated my elbow at the beginning of calving once. Sure complicated life having an injury. You’ll figure out what works for you yet, but you’ll find you may need herding dogs to move them sheep out of the way. They aren’t as smart as a goat. Lol

I was bummed about the video. Takes a while to upload em. I’ll just try to make a new video thanks Ben.
Darn Jordan!! This is the video I’ve been waiting on. It looks like they’re still doing well. Hate to hear about the foot!! Stay after it!!😁😁
Thanks Brett

I have found up here in Minnesota it's best to lamb the first part of May
