Lamb Creep

This is bothering Charlie as lambs only have two teats to feed from, thus rises a higher probability of cades. Powdered milk is seventy pounds a bag, each cade lamb will consume this amount of powered milk. The cade lamb in the farmhouse is consuming three to four bottles a day, stronger, she can to be returned to the flock today. When taken into account other costs such as ewe nuts, lick buckets, medicine and vets bills, fly strike spray etc, Charlie's hobby is not profitable. I have a noisy head this morning, although weeks of prolonged toothache now finally seems to have dissipated; I am ajar on how the dentist didn't prescribe antibiotics, the periodontitis infection in my mouth was rancid and very, very miserable.

We are halfway through lambing, already, extreme tiredness is starting to show. Cade lamb is sneezing, so they'll be no playtime on the paddock. This morning I attempted to build a lamb creep, a shelter on the paddock for the young lambs, but I am not able to bang in fence posts as I used to do; so I've left the job as a marker for Charlie to finish. So far we've managed to thwart mortality among the lambs, the birth rate is now almost two lambs to one ewe; so I guess we're successful at lambing this year. As haylage nibbles for the lambs become more frequent, they are readying to be weaned off milk and onto lamb pellets, as their bad mother ewes will be going to cast in a few weeks.
