Clun Forest AI Results


Success! Indeed 11 of 12 ewes bred artificially with the Netherlands frozen semen lambed from March 21-25. We had a few struggles with 3 sets of TBV triplets born on one day and a couple losses in the following days (small lambs) plus one cervical spine deformity in one of them but she is thriving now.
We have more SAN lambs: 3 twin born rams plus 1 single born black fleeced wether and 4 ewes.
Our first TBV lambs: 5 twin or triplet born rams and 3 ewes.
Our first OWE lamb: a twin born ram but the other got hung up at the ribs in a backwards birth and he didn't make it.
Overall, 15 lambs at this point could be registerable. The pic is of one the SAN twin ram lambs and his dam.
