Today we’ve been preg-scanning our later lambing ewes and this is what a lamb looks inside the ewe!
Our vet Dave uses and ultrasound machine, pretty much the same as one for humans, although it’s smaller and more mobile.
Preg-scanning ewes is a great management tool for us. We can get the ‘dry ewes’ out and sell them (there are no free-loaders on our farm!) and look after the pregnant ones really well.
Where Dave is pointing is the foetus of a little lamb (not twins in this one). I just think it’s so cool that we can see things like this!
