Thanks Mark for your info, it definatly helped me to understand. My friend raises woolies and her ram lambs the same age as my ram lambs already have buds. I wasn't concerned, just wanted to know. Have a good one, Sue

Subject: [blackbelly] Growth of horns
Date: Fri, 2 Apr 2004 21:11:02 -0600

Sue, from my experience, the growth of the horns vary.  Our young rams
have started to grow them as early as two months to four months of age.
We have three ewes that have horn buds and their offspring's tend to
grow their horns faster and they have been larger.
