Ewes and Lambs in Spring Care and Feeding
Guidance on delaying turnout of ewes and lambs until the lambs are strong enough. Keep ewes in yard or shed after weaning. Lambs need attentive care in comfortable quarters for several weeks, especially if dams lack milk. Proper feeding is essential as ewes may raise two lambs, with thrifty lambs gaining about three pounds weekly.
