My ewes will lamb every 8 months but I don't let that happen as I feel it is hard on them, despite good feed and minerals (including selenium as it is low in my hay as per analysis). I have 2 rams and they each go with "their" ewes in July, then in August (depending on pastures) they all get turned out together. As they are due to lamb in Nov - Jan, the rams are removed in October and kept in ram pen (together) until next July.
