Valentina had a rough birth in which she got stuck inside and I had to go in and pull her out. Her mum rejected her so sheā€™s been bottle fed by Oliver for the last 12 weeks. Today they won Champion calling lamb and they also showed off their trick training for the crowds during my Animal Magic performance. So proud of these two! Oliver has done all the training on her so the win is ALL his work. She is just the most endearing wee girl and such a snuggle bug šŸ„°

Abomasal bloat is the leading cause of death for young bottle fed lambs. The best way to avoid it is to feed cold yoghurtised milk, in small frequent feeds.
Itā€™s easy and it actually saves time, making the day to day feeds easier!

The lambs visited Bayview Rest Home the other day, escorted by me and my 10yo son. Residents of the dementia and hospital care unit gathered in the lounge for cuddles with babies. Awhi dog buzzed around the room wagging his tail and smiling at everyone, and then showed off some of his tricks. The lambs were happy to be admired and passed around, falling asleep in the arms of whoever they were handed off to.
There were quite a few sheep farmers in the room, many of the ladies were reminiscing about their younger days when the husband would bring in boxes of newborn abandoned lambs and theyā€™d keep them in front of the kitchen range to warm up on winter nights.
So many smiles, and we left with happy hearts šŸ’•

Have you seen newborn hooves before? They have this jelly like substance on the bottom, so their hooves donā€™t hurt their mama when theyā€™re inside and being born. It quickly disappears once theyā€™re standing and walking.

Little and large! The wee brown boy is 8 days old and 1.9kg. The big black girl is 24 HOURS old and 3.5kg!

She was lifeless and floppy post-birth and mum walked away, happy with her first baby. So sheā€™s now inside.

Gotta love a ewe that not only births independently but is happy for you to walk up, cuddle her babies (and spray their navels), squeeze her udder, and feed some snacks.

Meet Fiddlestix! He was born Thursday (probably premature) and by Friday night it was clear he wasnā€™t going to manage out in the paddock with mum. So inside he came, and here I am with a needy newborn ;)
We love him already, these little guys get into your heart so quickly!
