Believe a single will be all, a FF. A single gives practice.
. Since Brat had just kidded 24 hr before, I got some colostrum and fed kid. She was up looking for Mom and I didn't really want it to be me. Put her in a stall, mom wasn't wanting caught. Later I have a goat caught in fence -- guess who. Yep, teenage mom. I put a collar on her, removed from fence & carted her butt to the stall. Gave kid a few ounces by bottle to get her wanting more...to nurse! Just came in. Mom's talking to her and I'm hoping for best. It'll be a few visits tonight. It's happened before, so 
otherwise another bottle kid. 
.
. So I know she got colostrum early on! 
Did chores and saw the ewe start talking to the lamb. Whew! Turned ito a good mama now.
no milk coming out. Finished chores and went work, a few prayers later. Mom had water, hay & grains. During the day the two seem to have become acquainted. Tonight, kid had full tummy, didn't want bottle AND as Mom ate, I reached under for a teat -- milk expresses with barely a squeeze or fight. Yep, kids nursing 
It's only been 30 hrs since birth but, feels like a week 
they'll get a few days stalled!!!
....this morn as I fed there's been an explosion of loose manure from her. That was a cleanup not expected and hauled a bag of shavings in to re-bed the stall. Sweet thing had emptied all at back end of stall, leaving clean area by feed & kid. So I worried all day at work, remembered I had wormed her the day before -- tonight she's almost normal poos, just a touch soft. Whew!!! Everything else seems fine. Eating hay well. I'm thankful, because she's special.
