    5 due soon, one of the end of month due ewes aborted, otherwise besides everything being way behind schedule things are fine.

    No lambs yet but found ewe on her back this afternoon. Bad discharge from the vulva and further investigation revealed a late aborted/dead lamb. No idea what happened as I've had this lady a few years now and she's was always easily lambed. She's ok now but may end up sending for a spin to the factory with a couple of other cull ewes later in the year.
