We've had a ewe cycle (and get bred by a 3 month old ram) early July.

  Hi everyone-

  As you all know, one of the Jacob breed traits is seasonal breeding.  I'm curious exactly what that season might be, so I ask this question:  what is the earliest that you know of your ewes coming in season?  If you have an answer to that question I would also like to know about where on the continent you're located.  (The second question is to try and get an idea of whether ovarian cycling is induced by temperature changes or photoperiod changes.)
