@Baymule & @Mini Horses - thank you! Yup they are keepers.
I'm now at the point where I'm not keeping all the ewe lambs! YAY. I keep eye candy (but will sell if I think they are smallish - but that takes some growing up first [or at least at this point in my evaluating them), and big white ones. One of my ewes puts out lambs that mature big. Slow and steady and learning all the way.

Spot the bottle lamb is doing just fine. He follows his mom and sister, runs to me for a bottle. I feed him 3 times a day. He is 4 weeks and 5 days old. I’ll bottle feed him until 6 weeks, then cut out the noon bottle and wean him at 8 weeks.

I met a delightful couple and invited them to the farm yesterday so she could bottle feed Spot. She was over the moon about Spot and all the sheep. Her husband was recording her on the phone. We had a fun visit.
