market lamb help! not cattle related

[justme]

Ugh...we had lamb weigh in this weekend.  Our wether was 109 pounds already and our ewe is 87 pounds.  We are really walking them, carting them, and seperating them at feeding.  Any other suggestions to watch my big boys weight?  He's a good rip but our fair is Aug. 1 and state fair 2 weeks after.  I'm sure he'll do alright in the early shows, we have one Memorial day weekend.

Don't laugh at my rough out shear job! lol  I know they look like they have corn rows in there wool lol

just make sure he is not taking a lion share of the food.  Feed him seperately or allow the ewe to eat first and than him to eat after she has cleaned up quite a bit.  Also nightly walks.

How Much are you feeding him??
Is he getting fat? If not then let him grow.
You may have to cut him back on feed though if he is.
