No she doesn't. Even a week before her due date.
Spotted at 2pm grazing in the field. At 315pm I found the ewe and a lamb standing in the sheep shed. There were still visible contractions a so we waited for the 2nd lamb.
After waiting 90 mins, and no lamb we checked and couldn't feel any parts. A bit nonplussed , but the vet confirmed an empty uterus. So she doesn't 'always' have twins
So we are leaving mother and lamb to sort out the feeding and will check back on them in a bit.
A few more gratuitous pictures of the lamb.
