250 lambs in 17 days, I imagine that keeps you both on the run! And if there's snow and cold you need to run evem faster to get thoses babies warmed up. Are there many issues that occur? Our small flock birthed without any problems so I'm unfamiliar with what can happen. I miss having lambs but next year we will definitely have a few. Sure hope the weather isn't as predicted! Happy lambing:)
Glad to hear your flock's lambing went well! For us, it all rides on the weather. An occasional rain or cold day is okay, incessant rain or cold rain and windy are tough. More reliable weather is why we lamb in May rather than earlier, like in March.
