What's the biggest and smallest lambs (at birth) you've ever had? I admit that I don't usually weigh lambs anymore unless they are really big or really small. As long as they are healthy and vigorous, I'm happy.
My smallest lamb was barely 3 lbs and born last year. He's not a huge yearling now, but doesn't look out of place with the other yearling rams. My biggest lamb was 11 lbs. He was a difficult birth for his dam (who was somewhat overweight). Most of my lambs are 5 to 6 lbs.
