Yes to Barbs love of her bottle baby.!!! I raise around 25 - 30 babies each
year. Some are blackbelly crosses and some jacobs but all are loveable. Alot
of them go to homes wanting pets etc. The ones we keep are certainly pest

Thanks for the input...what I'm aiming at is sort of a feeding issue, as

who tend to give triplets. In my opinion, triplets are more worry
than the extra lamb is
