Rabid 1,936 Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 The idea of early lambs is very much money, people talk about spring lamb,, but not many breed them that early, it's a hardy lamb to go through winter and they take more effort, but a well bred lamb into the early spring market always fetches top dollar, a fine balancing act between losses and extra profit, most play safe and lamb later in the year to co-incide with better weather and new grass arriving. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I bet a penny to the pound those ewes had a second round. They probably yeaned in the Spring and the farmer left the ram with them. They then came around again and the ram covered them. I've seen new born lambs in October because of this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

robbo 802 Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) Loads of lambs down in cornwall at the moment.[same every year at this time] I was surprised myself the first time i saw them when we moved here from Yorkshire. It brings a premium price on the easter market apparently. Edited November 24, 2017 by robbo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
