[Jacob-list] A Lamb!

[Linda]

I don't put much store in the dietary influence, but some people swear that acidic conditions produce more ewes.  We've had sheep for 15 years now and I think we are pretty close to 50/50 over that time.  Of course, there was the year where we got almost all rams and the year when we got almost all ewes.
