Lamb photos to follow later or in the morning. Toffee’s twins were a bit troublesome today. One twin was feeding but not the other. Jeremy milked Toffee and we fed the weaker lamb nearly a full bottle of her mother’s colostrum over the course of the day. Let’s hope both lambs get the hang of feeding from Toffee and that the newborn twins don’t require any help.

We decided to put kitchen lamb out in the paddock with the other lambs and their mums. We sprayed purple dye on her back so that we can recognise her when it’s time for her bottles.

The problem is that kitchen lamb thinks that I am her mummy and tried to follow me out of the paddock. I left her there for ten minutes and when I went back to check on her she had managed to wedge herself behind the water trough. I let her out of the paddock and she followed me back to the kitchen. Click below we will take her out again later

the new twins this morning as I was off to London to visit mum. I got back in time to take a poor quality photo after the sun had set

J suggested we put a soft toy in her cage
