Well done, You are going to have to wait to about 6 months. sheep can go on heat for the first time at about 6 months or some at 7 months. Keep feeding them well till then

For some producers, it is commonplace to breed well-grown ewe lambs when they are 7 to 9 months of age. Other producers wait until their ewes are 18 months old before breeding them to lamb as 2 year olds. However, different breeds of sheep reach puberty (sexually maturity) at different ages.

Your ram should be atleast 1 and 1/2 years to consider it for breeding
