update:  Quints and Mom still fine.  I am bottle feeding 2 and she is
 nursing 3.
 The bottle babes are taking 6-7 ounces!!!  I didn't have any lambs born
 today, I guess Rambo must have rested the day after he did his work!  LOL.

I'm actually amazed that they all did survive.  It says a lot for their
survival instinct and the mothering ability.
Bye the way, the day before I had to step in and help one of my first time
moms.  She was straining with a breech birth.  I gave some helpful pulls and
it was born alive, Mom took over  and both are fine, she is a very doting
mom.  That is actually the first time I have ever had to help any of these
fine sheep.
