Glyn, if you ever have cold lambs even with your heat lamps, Sandi Brock is a Canadian sheep farmer and she uses a long glove to put the lamb in so it keeps mum's smell etc, then put the lamb in a bucket of warm water for about 10-15 minutes until the temperature registers 37 degrees celcius and they drink a bottle. She's found that sometimes, if a lamb won't drink, it's because their temperature is too low. Her sheep are indoors all the time, so a different setup to you, but every cold lamb saved is more money come sale time.

@johnh1353 I am well aware of that, but farmers like everyone else are always learning. I just made a suggestion that I have seen another farmer use, and they can do what they want with the information.

Great when farmers share solutions with each other...that sieve solution was simple but brilliant as was your idea for catching fluids while lambing. If that lamb with the deformed pelvis is still alive, perhaps put him in with your other pets for company. I think you're the best sheep vlogger on KZbin, with the beautiful countryside, the number of sheep you have and your priceless Dad! I hope the weather improves for you soon!

Hi Glyn, wow 2 videos in one weekend. Can't imagine all of the work and stress to deal with all of the Sheep lambing Singles, Twins and Triplets. It sure keeps everyone busy. It is nice that you keep the weaker lambs as pets to give them a shot at life. Nature can be cruel so glad you give them a second chance. It was great footage of the 2 lambs playing together and just enjoying life. Congratulations on getting the Automatic Door to help keep the weather from inside the shed. It looks nice and should make a big difference. Best wishes for the rest of the Lambing Season.

Special offers in our local Sainsbury's this week, a half price, whole leg of lamb In fact, they had all the roasts on special offer, so my mum bought the leg of lamb, £12.50, but no, sadly, these things happen with all species. You win some, you lose some. I think some animals know when their babies aren't going to thrive and they either, throw them out or put an end to them quickly. I saw it with baby wallabies and others on the Animal Park series, the latest two 6 and 7 are on youtube.
