Fall is in full swing! Which means it's time to start courting the girls. Octavian has been plenty busy. Here are some typical dating moves... The lip curling (or 'smiling') is called the Flehmen response. It allow Octavian to transfer the pheromones of the lady ewes into an olfactory sense organ located in the roof of his mouth. From there Octavian is able to tell if the ladies are interested back... If they are, we'll have lambs here this coming spring!
