Good morning,
So there is a sheep farmer near us which is where we got our first lamb(bottle lamb) 3 years ago. We got one last year as well. This year we thought we would keep the tradition . When we went to pick up the what I thought would be a bottle lamb last night, the farmer said she was getting some milk(mom had triplets ) but as the lambs got older she was getting less . He said she is already just on grass/hay, grain and water. She is 4and a half weeks. I tried several attempts at a bottle and she won't take it ( which is what the man said). Will she be ok without milk or should I keep trying to push the bottle on her?
