Handling Lamb Rejection

In this video, we find a lamb that has been rejected by a first time mom. I hope this video helps you identify rejected lambs, see a ewe's rejection behavior, and see the fix in action.
The rejected lamb was not hard to identify. It thought I was mom. The ewe was a bit harder to find. All the ewes were put though the run to find who looked like they had just given birth. We are looking for blood and smaller belly.
This ewe was in a head gate for three days due to some rain. Usually a couple of days will do. Typically, I leave the ewe and lamb in a 6x6 bonding pen for an additional 1-2 days. These ewe immediately smelled her lamb, called to it, and let it nurse. So I turned them out into a small paddock to see if the bond still looked strong. It was, so they were able to rejoin the flock on a sunny day.
The head gate is from Premier 1.
