[Jacob-list] breeding ewes

[Dan Carpenter]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that I think Miranda meant May
and that she's asking how it can be that her ewe is developing an udder w/o
being pregnant--or if it has to mean that somehow the ewe is pregnant from a
neighbor's ram or something.

Yes, she would have been due no later than May.
