[Jacob-list] 1st time lamber...Contd

[Gotothewhip at aol.com]

Quick Question.. Are they called Maiden Ewes(Wondering if they are the same  
as horses in terminology)
 
Anyhow.. Her vulva is larger and pinker today... She was attacked by a dog  
as a lamb, and her tail is floppy..like jelly... so that wont help, but she 
does  not seem sunk in on either side of the tail head.
 
I was planning on going to Oklahoma with hubby this week to pick up our new  
horse trailer, but I think I will stay here in Colorado and watch this  ewe.  
A little bummed out as a lady down there had a ram for sale that I  wanted to 
look at... 
 
My  luck, she will wait 2 more weeks... Her bag does not feel like it  has 
any more liquid in it than it did the other day..... But the muscle tissue  in 
her back udder attachment looks MUCH larger....
 
We have cameras in the barn, and the one in her stall isnt working.. but  she 
does not seem ready yet either.... so I haven't been checking in on her at  
night yet....
 
We are lambing out 30 ewes this year... But they are all recorded  
breeding's, with ultrasounds... so this one has me guessing!  
 
The only info I have, is that she ran with the ram until we bought her in  
November......LOL!  An ultrasound said twins or triplets but couldn't give  me 
an estimate on lambing date as she was too far along!
