WANTED - Orphan Lambs
« on: February 26, 2010, 06:43:00 pm »
We are looking for a couple of Orphan Lambs as we have a ewe that lost hers but she has plenty of milk. We are looking in the Somerset / Devon area.

Unless you can get to a market to buy caid lambs perhaps you could find a local sheep farm and go see them with a view to buying the orphans?

you may have to milk the sheep or she could get mastitis.

Thanks for the reply. I have been milking her regularly but getting to market has been difficult.
