2021, Waiting on lambs!

[secuono]

Midnight feedings.
Ran out of first brand of colostrum replacer.
Started the 2nd brand. Will finish it off in the morning, then head to store for lamb milk.
So hard to remember who I've fed with the triplets, lol.

She may not like me, but she let me scoop up her lambs, bring them to the barn & put them in teats.

Got new colostrum replacer, in case any other ewes fail to produce milk.
Then a bag of lamb milk.
Stores don't carry bucket feeders for milk. Wanted to put them all together and try bucket feeding if the moms don't make milk.
Been chatting with some people about selling some of the bottle rams/wethers. Hopefully, at least 2 go.

Working on dog hot wire today.

Put the waiting ewes in the yard behind house, opened the bale in the carport for them.
Ewes with lambs were let out to yard around barn.
Out of lambing jugs again...lol.

One of the triplets has a hock that buckles forward. Decided to put him in a brace for a few days and see if it helps any. Searching the net, looks like it happens in weak triplets/quads sometimes. So, hoping he'll be okay soon.

I found my 4 bottle holder. Been using two bottles from it, but the other two don't have nipples for them. Ugh. It's from the UK, so idk where I'll be able to find replacements...
Looked at a few in store and none would work.

Found the replacement nipples n ordered a few.
