We found that in the cold it was crucial for the newborns to have colostrum in the first two to three hours. We checked up on them every couple hours to make sure they nursed. Also, bottle feeding a lamb for a few hours doesn't mean it has to stay a bottle lamb. We had one who we bottle fed for about 24 hours and then reconnected it with its mother and got it to nurse.
