Hithere,
Sorry for not posting sooner, within the same week my laptop died and the screen on my phone smashed :(
Screenon my phone has now been fixed but. Not100% as you can probably tell. ...
Left lamb in withhismates untill 2 days. Ago hoping he would.  Improve,  he. Has got weaker and much thinner
I put him in with the rams now for either.  A. Kill or cure  .The lambs. Were notweaned too earlyfor shepherdess lambs,  and theres no way Im.  Putting. A weaned olderlammb on a bottle
Its nothing to do with being. Weaned at6. Weeks
Shepherd ess lambs can be weaned from 5 weeks, to avoid the possibility of red gut. When the knacker comes tofarm next I will get. Him to. Take the lamb. It looks terrible.  And so. Weak, keeps fallingover. So so. Sorry about text, taken.   Me ages to write. This. Out, I hate technology. Sometimmes :(

If he were mine I would get him to the vet and I think on this occasion to get him to click that it's the teat he is after, I would get him on a weak milk bottle, to make sure he getting some fluids in x
