I stumbled upon a youtuber by the name of Sandi Brock/Sheepishly Me who documents all her lambing seasons and decided to check it out. With hundreds of ewes delivering 1-5 lambs each there are some tragedies, but I have yet to find a single rejected lamb, in fact the bond between an ewe and her lambs seems to be so strong that some ewes that have not delivered yet try to steal lambs from others. Yet they want people to believe that all 5 lambs that are currently in the house with them were rejected too?
There's no doubt the tranchers are pulling the poor things from their loving moms just for their own enjoyment of having a cute little quirky animal as a pet and it honestly breaks my heart.
