There are 20 ewes here, and the gestation period for ewes is 5 months, which means that... a ewe may give birth twice a year.
Milking is something we have to do almost every day.
She didn't want to take on all the work herself; she wanted the two of them to do it.
After checking on the condition of the lambs and confirming that they were in good condition, she went to the logistics department to find some spare enamel basins.
