Our ewes are overdue. Well, not all of them, but a few of them have gone past the 154 day mark and bagged up over a week ago. 2 of our ewes have dropped significantly and they all grunt and roll back their top lip when they sit. Last night we even had 2 restless ewes licking their lips. So, with all of the signs, where are the lambs? I am getting alittle impatient, especially when everyone asks, "Any lambs yet?" Oh well, they will come when they are ready, hopefully I will be here because it is the first time for 5 of them.
I had a dream last night that they all lambed at the same time and the 2 neighbor dogs were guarding pigs in the woods next to us (there are no pigs there in awake life). One of hte dogs jumped the fence and took a lamb back to his side and ate it, I could hear the bones crunching. I freaked out. Then, I saw the neighbors walking towards me and I told them about it and told him how much it would cost them and he seemed OK about it and hugged me. Then he asked if my husband was ready to give him his hir cut? (I have had some really weird dreams lately) I said he was up until 2AM with me observing and caring for the sheep (that part is true) and he said he would get his hair cut later when Dear was rested. Then, I went to check on the sheep and their lambs. The sheep were the size of rabbits and their lambs were the size of newborn bunnies. I had to keep picking up the bunny sheep and move them closer to their moms because the moms were stupid. After all of that, I woke up.
