8 Farm St Speers Point
Asdrubal Dagreat
Quick Preface: Yes I am fully aware that this will probably drown out in all the debate about trade, but because of a lot of the discussions and comments in those trade threads make me feel like some people do not realize how well you can target farm during late-endgame in LE. (mostly interested for super rare uniques or multiple LP uniques).
In this guide I want to explain how to manipulate the echo web to make multiple desired echo rewards (e.g. specific unique or exalted rewards) spawn and doing them multiple times by making the best use out of Vessels of Chaos and Vessels of Memory
There are two factors to increase the chance for the more rare rewards to spawn
Corruption: How much corruption is present in the timeline
Depth: How far away is the echo from the Starting Point
Uncover as much of the echo web as possible as far away from the starting point as possible and make sure to complete all Beacons as well. (Beacons sometimes reveal previously hidden paths).
While uncovering the echo web try avoiding undesired echoes as much as possible.
In response to "where is " a certain unique, if you search lastepochtools.com and look at the Item Database, you can search for the unique/set/etc. you want and it will tell you which boss it drops from and/or which specific mono to farm for it.
The site was likely occupied by a small group of people, about six or seven, who briefly lived on a river in southwest Michigan toward the end of the Pleistocene Epoch. The finding also suggests this is the northwesternmost Clovis settlement in the Great Lakes region. The researchers describe their findings in a paper published in the journal PaleoAmerica.
The Clovis people were a Paleoindian culture who lived in the Americas between 13,000 and 12,500 years ago. Identified by their distinctive spearpoints, the culture quickly spread through North and South America. Most Native Americans today can trace their ancestry to these early inhabitants, said Brendan Nash, a U-M doctoral student in archaeology and an author of the paper.
In the paleoarchaeology world, Clovis technology can be easily identified by two characteristics of their tools: that they primarily used a high-quality stone called chert and that they used a distinct method of making these tools.
Previously, there was little evidence that Clovis settled in Michigan. The region was nearly uninhabitable at this time. Much of the state was covered by glaciers, except a triangular swath over southwest Michigan that extended toward the tip of the mitt.
Thomas Talbot, a self-taught researcher, found the first Clovis spear point in 2008, in the fields of a farm in early spring. He often walks the fields at that time of year, after they have been plowed, searching for Native American spear points.
Clovis tools such as projectile points and hide scrapers have a very characteristic central channel through the length of the tool, called a flute. A Clovis person would have chipped stone outward from this central channel to create a place to attach the projectile point to its spear shaft. Also distinctive to the Clovis people is that they struck large flakes of material off the stone to create their points. The large, detached pieces had razor-sharp edges and would be used as expedient knives themselves.
Soon, a lab in Colorado will be doing a protein-residue analysis that may be able to identify which animals or plants the spear points may have been used on, which could tell the researchers what prey the people were hunting, Nash said.
Nash said there is a caveat to their findings. The Belson projectile points are similar to another set of early projectile points called Gainey, which also have a flute running up the center of the spearpoint. But the Belson projectile points exhibit the large flaking characteristic of Clovis technology, whereas Gainey points are shaped by many strikes that take off smaller flakes of material.
Soon the amniotic (water) sac emerges. If the ewe labors for more than an hour from this point without birthing the lamb, you should examine the ewe to determine if the lamb is in the wrong presentation for birth.
It will soon rupture (see arrow) and the ewe will find the fluid and lick it up. She will continue alternating lying down and pushing and standing up and pawing at the ground. Injesting the amniotic fluid provides the ewe with nutrients and hormones that can relieve pain and inflamation, quicken cervical dilation, and stimulate uterine contractions and milk production. It also helps the ewe recognize her lamb by smell and taste.
Once the shoulders are free of the birth canal, the ewe may stay lying down or stand up again. The rest of the lamb will slide out more easily, usually with a couple pushes if the ewe remains lying down. If she stands up, the lamb may slide out with the help of gravity.
The ewe will be thirsty and hungry after her labor. Warm molasses water (approx 1 cup in a large bucket) will give her an energy boost and she should be given hay. If there are multiple lambs, giving the ewe grain may help increase milk production.
Thank you so much for these photos and information! We are waiting on our first lambs which based on comparing the photos to my photos, it should be any day now! We have a small flock of Tunis, 5 ewes and a ram. We put our ram in with 3 of our girls 10/17 and left them together until 12/5. Do you have any pictures of a ewe that still has 4 weeks to go, but is definitely expecting? I have 1 that is due any day, and 1that I think is pregnant but not so far along and then one that I am completely unsure about.
Hi Kimberly, the photo collage at the top of the page is of Erin, who was born in 2011. She was almost 2 when I took these photos and pregnant for the first time. Some ewes naturally get larger udders than others and can pass those traits on to their female offspring. I hope lambing goes well for you! -Kim
Excellent and informative presentation. Can anyone tell me why the majority of our lambs are born with a single front leg head position. The majority of our lambs have presented this way this year and require assistance. Any information gratefully accepted
Thx this helps me a lot as we have a hobby farm and have sheep on it. We have a ewe that is pregnant and we had no knowledge about it. We have one ram and one ewe. Our ram is quite aggressive with us and the ewe while eating. Do you think we should separate them while the ewe is birthing? If so how long do we separate them for after the lamb is born?
Hi Kim,
How are you? I asked you a while back about separating my ewe away from my ram while birthing. Well it helped loads. On the 1st of August twin ewes were born. We are extremely grateful for your advise.
Hi Kim I am new to sheep. We bought14 ewes and 2 rams last October knowing that some were pregnant but not knowing due dates we have had one ewe lamb born without any assistance or problems We now have a ewe presenting cotyledons but no lamb had been born Is this placental separation and will she still have a lamb without intervention? These ewes are not friendly and have to be captured via head gates and U do not want to stress her since this issue just presented itself this morning Thank you for your advice.

She has been confined to our barn and lane way areas due to bad weather and we have searched for a lamb and not found one we thought of that as well Thanks for the advice we will just see how she goes tonight
Ok. She does make it hard for us to touch since she is not as friendly as the others and prefers to stay well away from us. She is quite a small sheep that could also probably make her udder red because it is very big?
These ewes are so wild they run from me as soon as I start to walk toward them. I caught one once like you suggest she threw herself around so badly feared she would injure herself so I turned her loose. It seems the only way we can do anything with these sheep is to run all of them through our head catch setup and catch the one we want but it is so stressful for the pregnant ewes. They are literally like wild animals ! My husband says just leave them alone to sort out their problems and they can live or die! He is from Australia and had worked sheep on big stations on horseback since he was 15 so has no empathy for livestock. I am beginning to think he may be right with these sheep. We do have 2 that we got from a local farm that are friendly but my new lambs are just as wild as the other crazy ones !
Two of our untamed ewes have successfully had a lamb (singles only) without assistance. Now the lambs are as wild as their mothers even though I have held them and handled them from birth. How can I get my new lambs to be semi friendly so I can at least get near them without them running away like they are going to be murdered? It is a real problem,my goats kids were usually always semi tame but these sheep are insane!
You are so helpful! We got our Dorper ram from a sale yard and he is definitely a head butter! I have to carry a big walking stick into his ram area and he stays away when he sees it. These animals only come for their food after I move away except for the two tame ones, who get most of the food since they are happy to be near me while the others stay far away! My tame ones are fat!
Yes I see this now! Now I just wait to see if there is a new lamb when I turn them out or bring them in. If there is a problem I can only hope the ewe will be too busy with labor to care if I come to assist! I am concerned at how totally the new lambs learn to run run away like their mothers! I would never recommend sale yard livestock to anybody for breeding stock! They are less expensive but more trouble than just spending more money for better sheep! You are a godsend! Thanks for the suggestions
