A sheep's gestation period is 147 days give or take. That is almost a 5 month gestation period.
Here at WoollyShire, we have East Friesian Dairy Sheep. And Lady Puddin Pop & Duchess Tootsie are pregnant. We haven't performed any pregnancy tests. No, pee stick tests available for sheep. Don't think we didn't look it up! But unless they carry all of their muffin top at the belly button, they are pregnant!
A rough estimate is Puddin Pop will lamb around March 9th. Tootsie is a month younger and we feel, she will lamb in April.

Guilty! Tootsie was snacking on the fig tree.
