Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Parturition in ewe known as Lambing.
In sheep, the process of parturition is called “lambing,” and it is referred to as "kidding" in goats. The gestation period in sheep and goats is very similar, with sheep giving birth after 144 - 150 days, and goats kidding at around 150 days.
Lambing is the time in the spring when female sheep give birth to lambs. Lambing is the climax of the sheep farmer's year.
