I can't see her number, but my money's on the one at top left that's got her own room and red bucket. Clearly she's gone 'private'.
Number 6 will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered.

Number 14 is looking a bit pale, but I'm not sure that's a reliable sign
Number 8 I believe.Cool.. 14 looks close too
If they move about a bit when you're not looking how do you keep track of which is which?

Don't bother asking her for information, her reply will be "You'll not get it"

He's written on their backs with an indelible biro, can you not see it?
If it was really like spot the ball the winning sheep would be up in the rafters somewhere.

Spot the Ball was a great idea. I don't suppose they could do it these days, what with pics being so hi-rez. Tippex would stick out like a sore thumb
actually 11 might be the one, now i see it on a screen rather than a phone..:lol:
Cant choose them Steve they have already lambed, hence the private room :).
The sheep that lambed and was my last one last night was sheep number 6.

once they come in and get settled down for the night ill take another pic and put it up.
So here is tonights pic. They have just nicely settled down but 1 of them is imminent.

Can you guess the right one?
No. 15 - looks like a barrage balloon.
If its pretty much ready it should be one of the top 3
If its pretty much ready it should be one of the top 3
Curious to how you came to that conclusion
Lol.. Bros sheep usually went away from flock a bit and start making a bed.
They were the ones furthest from flock. Without seeing the ass and teets it's a bit of a wild guess. Which mine probably is
Good sound reasoning that mate and quite true. Although last nights was in the middle of them all.

I reckon number 8, looks like she is straining to me.
Well Grant was spot on last night it was no.1 that lambed first.

No.6 & No. 14 also lambed
So tonights little bunch.

It is also possible none of them will lamb is 20 left and still 17 days to go. Missus had 1 lamb during the day.
Reminds me of the old nursery rhyme.
'Mary had a little lamb, the doctors were astounded. Everywhere that Mary went, Gynecologists abounded.'
I'm not doing well with this so far but I'm going to go all-in on number 8

Mary had a little lamb, she also had a bear. I've never seen her little lamb...
Acting on intelligence gathered in previous posts, it's number 4 for me
Probably none but I will go for 16

Marco's been suspiciously quiet on this thread - Got to wonder about that :scratch:
Dude, these are English sheep, and anyway it's genetically impossible! :eyebrows:
Well a crap night and day nothing new lambed :(. So still 20 to go although missus is pretty certain one of em has lost its lambs.
Manaaged to get 18 in the pic tonight the other 2 too busy eating so unlikely to lamb tonight. Hopefully a busier night than last night.

Hope not lost the lambs. They all look calm tho.
They were too calm another night spent staring at nothing but the odd fight. Has to be some lamb tonight.

I am not number 1, I'm a free sheep

So after an eventful night we are down to the last 2 :).
With martin and Grant on 1 correct guess each comes down to the decider. Will be back to normal hopefully by the morning.

Great thread, wish I'd have found it earlier to join in. Wouldn't have had any succes though, all my guesses as I read through the thread were wrong.
You'll have sold the rights to it to Sky by then, come on.
Always next yr mate ��
I shall look forward to it.
Hope all lambs and ewes are doing well!
one of our sheep did make the local news a few year ago

He is still alive as well and doing well.

He is still alive as well and doing well.
Some classic 'Partridge' style reporting there from Stuart Flinders too.
Although we did receive a visit from animal welfare over a complaint they received of Roy eating dog biscuits. As a result someone from Defra visit each year to make sure he is still alive as we are not allowed to sell him for meat, (not that we would anyway as he is a pet).
Little do they know he also loves homemade buns and jaffa cakes.
