The orphan two are starting to follow me about as they think I am mum :))) the other ewes will not have anything to do with them and butt them away, poor little mites. xx Jill

	Morning Jill, if I was still in France I would drive over & stay with you a few days. Always wanted to bottle feed a lamb. Bless them. You make a perfect mum for them.:-)))

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 1,112 Send Message	Hilary, the best thing about bottle feeding them is that they get to stay as pets :)) Have been known to sit out in the orchard to keep a sole orphan company:))) Will never make a farmers wife :))) x Jill

	I know how you feel Jill, could never part with any of my animals, especially if I had bottle fed them. Hilary.

	I lived on a farm for 9 years when I first got married and used to feed the sheep, I have a photo of my son feeding a lamb with a bottle and another of him running and the lamb chasing him when he was 3.

	Morning all, have we missed much? Last night the were 11 ewes in the pen but this morning I can only find 7. There's either been a lot of births or they are shy this morning.
