Hi all from TX,
What I do is flush the ewe. That means that I feed the ewe real well for about 6 weeks before putting the ram in. But, I have found it actually better to have 3 lamb crops in 2 years. Much easier on the ewe and the human. Here in Central TX, fire ants become a concern if lambing in late spring to summer.
Have fun!!

Subject: Re: [Blackbelly] Breeding twice in a year


My primary question is...If you want to lamb twice in one year how soon after lambing should the ewe be exposed again?

The secondary question is what advice and experiances has everyone had breeding twice in one year?

TIA,

Dave
