Great looking lamb but you really didn't teach anyone how to brace.

I have a stubborn lamb who’s really attached to my other lamb, but they are separated bow. He won’t let me touch him and I have 3 weeks till fair. Any tips? I’ve been trying to touch him all over daily. He acts like I beat him but I’ve only really smacked him once or twice when he’s misbehaved, and not hard at all.

Hey how did it go?

here are some tips for future lambs if you still show! never ever smack your sheep it doesn't matter how hard it scares them as they see sudden movements as predatory. get your halter tie it to a post or the side of your fence this will get them used to the halter while they're tied up sit in the pen with them it'll get them more relaxed around you then you can try leading them with the halter! find there favorite scratch spot and once they learn that that's the spot that you scratch they'll be more relaxed in the ring! this is how i did it with my lamb and come fair time he was an absolute sweetheart.

Put them on a stand

Dont really know because we cant see it. Put it on a stand 15 min a day. Keep placeing the feet where u want them. Also lambs are bred to brace not taught.
