• For newborns,

feed colostrum

or colostrum replacement with

Pritchard Teat on our Feeding

Bottle

(p. 100)

for first 18 hours, then

change to warm milk replacer.

• After one day

switch to latex

nipples in bucket teat units

(p. 99)

As soon as lambs learn to nurse

readily, switch to cold milk. Offer it

ad lib.

• Day 5,

offer dry creep feed in a

feeder.

Placing a light (a 175-watt

heat bulb is enough) over the dry

feed encourages lambs to stay near

the feeder and eat feed.

• After 8-10 days,

switch from latex

to rubber teats.

Why?

Because older

lambs may have sharp teeth (which

could be the reason a ewe rejected

them) that can rapidly damage the

softer latex teats.

• By the 5th week,

the lambs’

consumption per day will surprise

you—as will the cost of the milk

replacer! Begin diluting the milk

with more water and weaning them.

• By the 6th week,

wean by offering

only water and dry feed. Tough love

saves $$.
