Re: [blackbelly] orphaned lambs
When do the stomachs of a lamb begin to process grain? - Original Message - From: RBMuller [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: blackbelly@lists.blackbellysheep.info Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 3:51 PM Subject: Re: [blackbelly] orphaned lambs You might also want to make some small lamb or kid pellets available to them since they eat early. Don't use grain as their rumen can't process it yet! Rhonda ___ This message is from the blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
[blackbelly] info on restraint
Has anyone purchased the Deck Chair from premier. Does it work better than other types of restraints. If I have to do much by myself I tie my guys up. Not the happiest of campers but it works. Would like something a little easier on us all. My ram hates to wear a halter. He thinks it is not manly enough. oj Oneta Johnson McLoud Telephone Company Data Entry/CSR Don't tell GOD what to do, just report for duty! ___ This message is from the blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
[blackbelly] processing grain
I read somewhere that a lamb can't live on hay and grain alone until 10 weeks of age. But I have had a lamb or two that wouldn't drink much milk from a bottle and the only problem I have found is that they just don't grow very well. They tend to get the scoots and need pepto because the grain and the alfalfa is so rich. When bottle feeding though I think that holding and cuddling lambs alot gets them to trust you and begin drinking more milk sooner. Just a thought.
