[Blackbelly] alternative method for weaning a bottle baby

the quantity of milk than it is to dilute it. This made sense to me, so I took this alternative approach with the bottle lamb I've been feeding for the past 2 months. It worked very well and I weaned him over a period of 7 days. Just thought I'd share. Carol Carol Elkins Critterhaven

Re: [Blackbelly] Are Blackbellies easy to sell?

are these sheep to sell? I believed going into this, that through the consortium, I wouldn't have a hard time selling my lamb crops? What can you folks share with us about this topic? We would love to hear from you. Carol Elkins Critterhaven--Registered Barbados Blackbelly Hair Sheep (no shear, no dock
