In this video we are doing a wet foster of a triplet lamb on to a single lamb.

Ewes only have two teats and find it difficult to raise 3 lambs as they fight with each other for milk.

A way round this is to give a ewe with one lamb a foster lamb that she will take as her own.

It means all lambs get a fair share of milk and continue to thrive.

This is not the best example as I have taken advantage of a perfect scenario but it may still be interesting to watch.

Thanks.
