New Lamb, Great Mom

Within several minutes of birth, Susie’s lamb had found her udder and was feedling – you can tell when the lamb’s tail wags back and forth. Susie is a natural and good mother (you can see the afterbirth still hanging from her uterine canal). We were well prepared, we had the vitamin booster, the disinfectant, molasses for the water and the heat lamps are set up. We were getting a bit restive, we were about two months off in our calculations. I think it will be raining lambs shortly. Susie is thirsty, she is doing well, the lamb looks healthy, hasn’t started squawking yet.
