 e of my own sheep. I lamb then late in the season in May\, I have tried Sy
 nchronizing my ewes to ensure that they all lamb within a short period. Th
 is has worked brilliantly\, I would highly recommend to all Smallholders t
 o synchronize your ewes. It makes it so much easier to ensure your lambing
  holiday is used appropriately ” - Bibby Thomas\n\n[/vc_column_text][/
