Lambs require extreme care in management and feeding. Lambs will vary in their ability to consume feed. This schedule should be used as a guide only. Lambs should receive
colostrum milk as soon after birth as possible.

Gradually decrease the number of feedings and increase amount of DeLuxe Lamb milk replacer per feeding. If you are using a free choice nipple feeder to give lambs access to DeLuxe Lamb
milk replacer, it should be fed cold at about 4 C. Cold milk is used to limit intake and prevent over eating. When starting lambs on nipples they will require assistance.
However, they adapt readily and nurse independently within 1 or 2 days.
