I have 3 ewes of unknown age and purchased a ram lamb last December that was 3 months old. He has been with the girls ever since and I still have not had a lamb. I saw him breed two girls in March when he was 6 month old but the girls didn't get pregnant. Now I have a marking harness on him since the beginning of October and he has bred two of the three. He is now over a year old and I would think he should get the job done. I'm really hoping that he is not shooting blanks...
