Preparing for Lambing

At least a month prior to lambing, producers should gather all the items they may need. Here are a few items that many producers like to have on hand during lambing season:

  • Frozen colostrum
  • milk replacer
  • bucket
  • soap
  • lubricant
  • bottle with nipple
  • clean towels
  • lambing pens (1 for every 10 ewes)
  • water and feed buckets
  • weak lamb feeding tube
  • telephone number for your local veterinarian
