If there's any room at your place for him to stay, we could get creative. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for telling me about your ewe Tammy. You've given me hope that Cora will be able to raise lambs still. She's only two years old, super friendly and her fleece is so nice, it's a shame to cull her. Good luck with your hoof trimming this week.Becky Utechthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08664957352385337093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30562945.post-85547401698523325132008-10-07T17:33:00.000-05:002008-10-07T17:33:00.000-05:00Lovely pictures!

I'll be doing most of mine later this week...not looking forward to it. I would guess the combination of the good alfalfa and wet weather caused your sheepie hooves to grow more than usual. I have one Shetland ewe who has only one side of her udder that is functional. She raises twins every year. I have noticed when they are about five or six weeks old, that one will start to get 'crowded out', so I start supplementing a little grain to that lamb at that point. So far though, I've never had to bottle feed.<BR/>TammyTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131066591477169851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30562945.post-23693895130468572672008-10-07T14:27:00.000-05:002008-10-07T14:27:00.000-05:00Thanks for having us Becky, I had a blast :) Cora...Thanks for having us Becky, I had a blast :) Cora looks beautiful :) Don't forget you're keeping that gorgeous natural colored bfl/shetland mule boy!
