It's time for a bit of honesty. I had filmed a whole video about how to wean lambs, and they were SO loud the first time I weaned them. In fact, I ended up giving up and moving the lambs back with the ewes before day 1.
But this time I was able to get my two ram lambs weaned without much incident. Of course they were loud for about a day, but having them maintain eyesight and a fence line with their mothers really helped.
I also think giving the lambs free choice alfalfa hay for a week before hand helped them bulk up before the move.
