Rooks begin to build. They began the same day at Fyfield. Swine & sheep, for such large quadrupeds, become prolific very early; since a sow at four months old requires the boar: & ram-lambs, which fall in Jan. & Feb. if well kept, will supply the wants of their own dams by the following Octobr, & beget lambs for the next year. Horses & kine seldom procreate ’til they are two years old.
