  1. Oh! Poor thing. . . certainly you did your best. Did it stop feeding? Or was it too weak? Or the birth too difficult? Oh. . .

  4. So sorry. Country life with animals is not easy. Don't forget you may have to milk her for her sake. Beth

  8. I know you're country-tough, but as a mom with a new baby that's got to be hard to take. So, so sorry.

  9. We're not really sure exactly what happened, but it just had a lot of strikes against it--difficult birth, difficulty nursing, some relatively cold weather.

    And no, Tami. Lambs weigh only a few pounds when they're born. A. buried it.
