And they were soon joined by another little lamb, the absolutely minute Esther.

Just to give you a sense of scale, Martin is the smaller of the twins.

The day after these photos were taken, Esther took ill. She was off her milk, and her poo was runny with blood in it. I took her to the vet, who gave her a few injections. She was very popular in the surgery - the vet took a picture of her, she thought she was so cute! The receptionist saw her too, and some dog owners stroked her outside the surgery. Esher had a high temperature, despite being inside the kitchen, and because she was so tiny it was touch and go. But I have good news!

Esther lives!

She showed signs of recovery the morning after her vet visit, and after a few days she was happily skipping around the kitchen!

She's the sweetest little thing! I'm so very glad her story has a happy ending.
Awwwww... you're a good sheep mom :o)
ReplyDeleteStay strong, Esther!
I'm so glad little Esther pulled through her health crisis!
ReplyDeleteThese lambs are absolutely the cutest things I have ever seen. Happy to hear that Esther has pulled through her health scare. Thanks for the share!
