A couple of weeks ago I took on a couple of orphaned jacob lambs. Sadly one of them died yesterday leaving a rather lonely ram lamb who is two and a half weeks old. To keep him company I am thinking of bringing in two other orphans from a farm that I know quite well. They are 4 weeks and 6 weeks old and are southdowns so will be quite a bit bigger than the jacob lamb.
I am worried that, if I put them in the same stable as the smaller lamb, they will be a bit too boisterous and will overwhelm him. Should I put a hurdle in the middle of the stable for a few days to separate them, or am I worrying unnecessarily?
