10 and 12 weeks. 4 lambs total. The 2 I’m concerned about do more begging. They are twins so they’re small. Mom was also very old. I didn’t think she was pregnant til the last couple of weeks. Poor old ewe I did my best for her but couldn’t save her. Anyhow I wanted to check since they had such a bumpy start. Didn’t want digestive issues.
Are you offering feed and water also? After the record breaking snow, ice and -6F temperatures and storms we had here, I transitioned mine to the barn. They still get their bottles twice a day, but are grazing, eating hay and feed.
Sorry your old ewe didn’t make it. In her passing she left you her precious babies. Got pictures?? LOL
They have feed, water, hay and the grass is coming on. I overnighted them in the barn last night so of course it stormed. Actually I knew about the weather but it rolled in 2 hours earlier than predicted so I was out a 4a checking on them and dodging bolts of lightning. They were fine but I needed the special coffee and a pep talk.
You sound like a good shepherd! Hard to let go of the little cuties and move them to the barn. We diapered up ours and let them run around the house, they were so much fun. They also peed out twice the volume of what they took in, gheesh, WHERE does it all come from?? LOL They had a dog crate with XXL puppy pads that needed changing a lot. They both are doing great in the barn, but are definately my babies.
