Today one of the lambs was cold and not up nursing.
I brought him to the house and gave him to Abilene to look after. I put the lamb beside her. She licked and mothered him, and warmed him up.
I fixed some caned milk and sugar (all I had) and fed that to him. He livened up and in 4 hours was ready to go back to his Ewe Mother! He is nursing and doing well!
Abilene was left alone with this lamb…I knew she would tend to it! And she did a fine job!
