When sheep wander off or parents pass away, the sheep farm has to solve the problem of what to do with little orphaned lambs. Well, today, it was Clyde playing surrogate Mama, feeding this strapping little fellow a nice warm bottle of formula.
This is not an activity for the faint-hearted, by the way. These little fellows don’t just stand there and meekly suck … they tug and yank and slurp like there’s no tomorrow. “I’ve seen ’em drag their mother around the pasture,” our host, Stu, reported.
We think that’s adorable!
Clyde … or the lammikins? 🙂
Thanks for the note. We are having an amazing time. I’m definitely coming back just as soon as my schedule allows.
