i brought 30 hebridean ewes yesterday,to increase my flock.
well picked them up in the morning,by 4.30pm 3 had lambed,
the lambs are very small(even for hebs)
the ewes are very thin.
rang the seller & she did'nt know they were in lamb.
anyway we had 4 more lamb today,they seem ok.
but one of the ones that lambed this morning is a last years lamb & she had a very tiny lamb,it has fed.
we tried to get her in with the lamb but as soon as you go near she runs off,won't follow the lamb at all.
now the lamb looks very cold.
do i leave it with mum or bring it home & rear it,it won't make any difference if i rear it i'm already rearing goat kids.
she's being a good mum,staying near it & i've seen it feed.
oh what do i do?
