Thanks :) I think its a great opportunity for learning. Turns out they really enjoy it, so it makes me happy to see them doing something they enjoy so much.

The kids went to their first show this weekend. Was a great experience, we are all looking forward to getting to a bunch more this year. Hoping to get my ram lamb out there, very interested in seeing how he does. Here are a couple pictures.

Got some pictures of him out enjoying some grass . Have I mentioned how excited I am to see his lambs next year :love

Us to, I just love him. He is a big boy. He is almost as tall as my 2yr Old Ewe and he is around 2 1/2 months old, almost 3 months. Im hoping to get him out to some shows this summer. I am going to try and get some more pictures of him.

Introducing our new future herd sire "Valor" We love him! Hopefully he is a good boy. Looking forward to seeing what lambs we get out of him :love

Any tips or advice in regards to showing sheep. Im taking 2 of my Registered Ewes to a show in May. My 7yr old and 6yr Old will be showing themo_O so inexperienced sheep plus inexperienced kids should be an interesting combo. Im working my butt off to make sure the ewes are used to being led...

Well, its been a while. So I figured I would come on here and update everyone! Things are going well. All of my ewes are doing great. And we are in the process of selling our last little ram lamb. We are going to look at a potential ram to be our herd sire next week. I'm so excited! I will make...

@Mike CHS I noticed some milk replacers have copper in them, yet it still says for lambs? I was under the impression of no copper for sheep?

Ok, I think our decision to start feeding it will be for the best. Im so disappointed in this ewe, I was really hoping she was going to be a pro like her half sister. But she isn't :barnie

He is constantly trying to suckle on her, going back and forth , from one side to the other. We felt his belly like you said @Mike CHS and there was hardly anything there. He was born 6 days ago. I would think she would have a milk bag by now. He follows her around shivering , she acts pretty...

no loss in weight, seems energetic but is still pretty skinny.

So, our Ewe just had a lamb about 5 days ago. He seems ok he is walking around ect. But the Ewe has almost no milk bag? We tried to get milk out, and couldn't get anything...but neither me or hubby are probably doing the right technique lol Should I think about feeding him with a bottle? Should...

One of the many reasons I picked her out of the herd that I was looking at :) she has been such a great momma , especially to twins her first time.

The lambs are doing great, very healthy stocky little guys . The black ram lamb is off to his new home next week. I can't believe how fast they grow.

He will have a ewe in the pen beside him so he won't be completely alone

He has a twin , a little ewe lamb that will be staying on her for now

Ok thanks :)

Ok thanks everyone. Do I gradually separate him? Or just go for it cold turkey. I'm glad the buyer is keeping him a ram I'm excited to see how he turns out :) Photo of the little dude

Weaning at a little over 60 days ? is this ok to do. Im hoping to wean my Ram Lamb off his dam so he can head to his new home, he is eating grain/ hay and drinking water. I have looked around on google and advice seems to kind of be all over the place depending on what your operation is and type...

I can see it now :)
