We induced 1417, an older Border ewe who we have been watching, as she has a broken prepubertal tendon and a moderate hernia, gave us four lambs. Three ewes and a ram. We are letting her have one of the ewes, and are supplementing with bottle, as momma is metabolically compromised from the injuries... We gave away the ram to someone who loves raising bottle lambs, and we have two ewe lambs in the house.
the one in the box is an escape risk, the one on the floor is the special risk...
#kinjaborked-it won’t give me the dialog to upload from computer. [insert lamb picture here] (temporary)
One is fine, but we also have the runt, who shows obvious signs of being premature. She has gotten up by herself once, and can stand, but has taken no steps and won’t suckle. We have been feeding her with a tube and hope she turns around in the next ~24 hours. A (two) regular house/bottle lamb(s) is bad enough, we can’t support a special-needs case with all the other work we have to do :/
View from my couch at 7am this morning.

Cute, sounds like having houselambs is a good infestation.

Could be worse... But they are demanding. And then there’s pee... Then comes to poop. Oh man, lamb shit is the WORST. Theoretically sheep are nominal house trainable, but the effort it requires is extensive for something that you are going to put out in the barn as soon as it can withstand the cold alone and be without supervision for more than 2 hours at a time

First thing that came to mind was a constipated lamb with free run of the house sitting on your couch between the two of you in a happy family photo. Not sure the internet was a far enough remove from how bad that must have smelled.
Hopefully mama can take care of third handful and the other two make a pact to be especially easy to care for. For that matter let’s hope these are the only house lambs.

With those, you could start a Lamb Yoga studio.

I know firsthand that diapers fit on baby goats pretty well.
