Breeding Season 2009

Well, finally after getting up our equipment shed and putting up new barnyard fencing for it, we were ready to put together our breeding groups.  Of course, as is with all building projects, it took us a couple of weeks longer than anticipated and so the breeding groups were put together a bit later than we wanted.  But, the rams were all that much happier to get in with their gals!!!!

We were really happy with the three rams we used last year, so they got to go back to the breeding pen this year.  We also have one ram lamb that we are using on a few ewe lambs and as "clean up ram" for the adult ewes.  I am just hoping that as the clean up guy, he's got what it takes.  This young guy has a super genetic background, with 75% AI.  I will be adding him to the rams page soon, so you can get a look at him and his lineage.

Looking forward now to lambing season and seeing what lovely lambs we get from these breeding combinations.
