The musculoskeletal system (see Introduction to the Biology of the Musculoskeletal System) includes the bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints, which support and move the body.
Lambing. Ewes generally lamb around 145 days after mating. Some of course will be earlier & some later, but 145 days is the norm. For a successful lambing, ewes need to receive good nutrition, particularly in the last month of pregnancy when the lamb will approximately double in size.
Submerge the lamb in cold water, changing the water every 30 minutes so that it continues to thaw. Small packages of lamb may defrost in an hour or less; a 3- to 4-pound roast may take 2 to 3 hours.
