Sheep sonar

Well, it was time to sonarcheck Bensi´s sheep to see if the rams did  their "job" well. So a specialist with the needed equipment came and had a look at the 161 females. Bensi had asked us to help him handling the sheep, but when we arrived they were nearly finished and not so much to do for us. At least the specialist was so nice to show us, where the head, the neck and the legs of the unborn lamb is to see on the screen. Without his explantions I wouldn´t have seen anything at all. The most amazing thing about him was, how fast he could see if it is 1, 2 or even 3 lambs. According to that the sheep were marked. Red on the head: no lamb, red on the back: 1 lamb, no marking: 2 lambs, blue marking on the back: 3 lambs.
I think, Bensi will be really busy in May, when all these lambs want to be born at the same time. We´ll probably have to go and help a bit. I´m looking forward to that!
