I dont bother with daily weight checks mainly because they are really iffy to me. I used to do weekly and then I got lazy lol so now I just do every 10 days. I expect them to gain at least two to three pounds in that time frame. Better weight gain would be near seven and eight pounds or higher.

I don't do any weight checks. If a lamb looks good and is jumping around and has a full belly I figure they're doing just fine. Sounds like taking her off supplementing is not a good idea for now.
