The Lambs Are Free! Preparing for Weaning on Our Sheep Farm

Video: The Lambs Are Free! Preparing for Weaning on Our Sheep Farm

The lambs are free as we start preparing for weaning on our sheep farm in Ontario, Canada. Today at Ewetopia Farms, we’re letting our Suffolk and Dorset lambs experience their first real taste of freedom! We give each group access to the barnyard separately, letting them run, leap, and explore while we go about our daily chores. Watch as they tackle a hay bale, chase barn cats, and enjoy their new space. This gradual independence helps with weaning and ensures a smooth transition away from their mothers. Join us for another fun-filled day on the farm!
