My big ewe, with udders like a milk goat, had QUADS this morning. The lambs
are looking for the teats, but they are hanging so low and are so large,
that they are not finding them yet. I have milked her and bottle fed them,
and will continue to do this periodically over the weekend. I am thrilled.
The ewe is a dorper/st croix probably 50/50 of each, and the ram is a young
75% dorper who has produced a higher than average number of twins this
season. 

Any thoughts on what I should be doing for her and the lambs?
