[Blackbelly] sick lamb

[Nancy & Tom Richardson]

Hello, I know my jacobs are different but I have a question about a sick 
lamb perhaps someone may have seen in their balckbellies. He is a bottle 
baby first of all. About a month old. The first 2 weeks of his life he ate 
like a pig! now for the last 2 weeks I have been lucky to get 5 ounces of 
milk every 6 hours down him. He has gotten a little skinny. He has Kent lamb 
pellets, hay, mineral , baking soda and water all available and is in a pen 
inside with others that are half his age and eat more than he. He shows no 
real signs of eating hay, pellets etc. Any ideas? He doesn't have a snotty 
nose or anything and when he does eat he sucks hard and excitiedly.. Any 
help would be appreciated. Nancy   my email off list is 
cjarr...@centurytel.net
