we've just been checking our lambing box and have in it
antibacterial lube
iodine (5%)
calcijet
volostrum
lamblac
feeding bottles and tube
elastrator and bands
some abs and syringes
torches
spare torch batteries
couple of towels
sharp knife and scissors ( god knows why but just in case)
purple spray- usually for squirting a coloured dot so we know who's who
the vets phone number
my mate Johns number (hes a proper farmer)

our first is due on Saturday- so exciting - we are always apprehensive but LOVE lambing
