What a relief!  By mid September, we started feeding haylage to the ewes, which they rally enjoy.  Grass is just not so palatable in the fall, although it has been much more plentiful this year because of the wet conditions.  We are hoping to introduce the rams soon, but want to shear the ewes first.  we are aiming for the first week of November for the ram's entry.]]>Mon, 16 Oct 2023 15:44:43 GMThttps://www.bestbaafarm.com/blog/october-16th-2023Thu, 23 Feb 2023 16:52:52 GMThttps://www.bestbaafarm.com/blog/preparing-for-lambing-our-sheep-are-due-early-april-so-we-have-upped-their-rations-as-they-are-now-in-their-third-trimester-half-a-pound-of-oats-daily-and-ad-lib-hay-is-no-longer-enough-we-are-also-shearing-them-very-soon-as-their-fleeces-arTue, 01 Nov 2022 15:47:40 GMThttps://www.bestbaafarm.com/blog/autumn-some-beautiful-days-but-we-are-still-short-of-rain-we-will-be-putting-the-rams-in-with-the-ewes-this-week-if-the-rams-go-in-on-guy-fawkes-day-the-ewes-will-lamb-on-april-fools-day-a-good-way-of-remembering-lambing-datesSat, 06 Aug 2022 07:00:00 GMThttps://www.bestbaafarm.com/blog/sheering-next-week-at-last
