Aww! What a smashing picture of the triplets and mum! They look so wonderful all together.
Yes it is unusual to have three. And a bit of a strain, so it's good you are helping out.
Many have twins in my area, but I have not often seen triplets. Where I once lived, in the Welsh mountains, even twins were rare.
Do ewes need extra calcium when they have more than one lamb to feed? And is a 'lick' for them the best solution to maintain calcium and mineral levels, or do they need special feed?
Zina will be glad to have some company I imagine.
