Last night in the nursery! Only the mamas, lambs and hens are allowed in the barn!
Skye is still very little but seems to be nursing ALL the time! She looks stronger and we know, as evident by her milk mustache, that she is getting some milk from her mama. We are still giving her a supplemental feeding each day!
Last Friday, mid-day, I noticed this little boy wasn't up and walking well. By the time Farmer J got home from work, the situation was no better and we called the vet. In less than 15 minutes, a vet from our country vet clinic was to our farm. He thinks our lamb sprained his rear, left leg. He gave the lamb a shot of ibuprofen and left three more shots for J to administer over the weekend. Today, a week later, he is doing much better...but still has a slight limp. J is wondering if his hip is dislocated. I'm always quick to ask J if the vet should come out and give us his professional opinion.
This little guy is so tame and LOVES to be pet and scratched!
