Whiskey Bent........unlike cattle and horses, sheep (like deer and elk) become fertle with shorter daylite of fall. Some try to breed as early as possible for Easter Lamb sales $$$. Others like Oct/Nov breeding so they don't haffta feed mothers extra hay and the lambs can go out on grass (which is cheaper) Ewes have a 19-day cycle and 55-day gestation. A good ram will cover them all (sometime 6-ewes innna day) iff'n he doesn't haffta chase all over the pasture. Generally speaking, 1-ram per 30-ewes, and ram should be a twin 'cuz they will more likely sire twins. NEVER 2-rams in same breeding flock 'cuz they will be FIGHTING each other 'stedda' taking care of business. ......Dell, head shepherd RockyRidge SheepStation, 15-acres of starvation grass at the foot of 14K Mt Rainier
