We went out after church to feed the lambs. The way I mixed up the milk replacer, it just fit better into 5 bottles instead of 6. Jo and Owen went out to help me and we had told them about the lamb that was having a hard time this morning (Jo had actually seen it. She came out to help this morning in her pj's she was so excited). I told them that if it was still holding on, I would come back in and make up another bottle. We went out and it was dead. I didn't want the other lambs to have to be in the pen with their dead friend, so I was brave and took it out. It didn't seem like it had been dead long. Poor little baby.
The one that was having a hard time this morning is still having a hard time. It wouldn't eat anything this afternoon. The milk replacer just got all over me and the poor lambs face. It still seems really strong and was actually curious about the grass growing in the corral. It's too little to just be living on grass. This is SO hard!!
