Wednesday. Up to morning routine. One of our old ewe had a lamb this morning. We will have to watch her. I put Emma Lee in the stock trailor with two other bottle babies that we are keeping an eye on. This will give her a chance to bond with them before going out in the lot. I think if I just put her in a lot, she would get out and come to the front door. She has been crying some especially when she hears my voice.

I worked on the computer some until and put a roast and vegatables in the oven so supper will be done before going to feed. My father is having sugery today so I have been keeping in touch with that. I started on the typing for the day.

When I went to feed, I found the baby very weak so I went back to the house for a bottle for her and also one for Lanie, the other lamb. Both lambs drank but I am not sure if this newest one will pull through. All the other baby lambs and goats are doing fine. I will leave Emma Lee and the other goats feeding for Donny to do so Emma Lee will not get so upset if she sees me.

Donny came in and he and Dusty went to finish up feeding. The neighbors horse had eaten too much clover and was having some trouble so they went to see about him. I went back to the barn around dark and fed the lamb again.
