Willow is doing well today and has decided to accept her girls. We had someone that purchased a wether from us last year (she has other sheep) that wanted a bottle baby and she drove 4 hours one way today to get the ram. We thought 2 lambs was enough for a Willow to handle.
I saw your post on your journal a while ago about feeding bones and I forgot to go back and respond about whether Merlin was alive or not. In answer to your question....he's fine.
