New bottle babies

[Coolbreeze89]

I’m finally joining the sheep club! After following @Baymule and others’ sheep adventures, I just added sheep to my hobby farm menagerie. These three beauties are 11day old Barbado ewe triplets (not Texas barbado - no horns on parents). They got colostrum but mom otherwise rejected them. Doing well on milk replacer, per seller (I’ve seen good stools since I got home with them). I’ll monitor and change to whole milk if I notice any scours developing. I’m told they’re taking 3-5oz 5-6 times a day now.

They are very active and friendly. I’m very excited!

Congrats!

Buy a gallon of whole milk, pour our two cups. Pour in a can of evaporated Pet milk and 1 cup of cultured buttermilk, makes good milk replacer.

Your lambs are cute!
