Glad she is getting going now, our first 2 sheep were cade lambs that had gone very hungry for 24hours and one of them refused to drink from a bottle, we had to tube feed him for 21/2 weeks when he eventually realised what a bottle was all about. We were advised to put him down as he was probably a bit brain damaged, however as he was nibbling at grass and hay I thought he would be ok eventually if we could just keep him tubed with milk until he could eat creep etc.
