Lucy's Lambs were rejected by their mother
So the various Slacks came to the rescue!
That would be a big job! For a couple of years I spent a lot of time on a friend's farm where there were some sheep: lambing in the Spring was the most fun. One year their was a lamb, Marigold, who was exceptional: the back of the barn was above ground, so most lambs would carefully jump down, but Marigold would rear back and launch herself out! She always wanted to be on top of the compost heap, and if the lambs were running back and forth along a fence, she would be first. If she had been human, you would say that she was bound for the Olympics. But she was a hungry girl, who didn't think that her mother fed her enough. One ewe only had a single lamb, so that meant an available teat, in Marigold's eyes, and if that didn't work, she wasn't above finding a ewe feeding two lambs and bumping one of them off for a quick snack before the ewe noticed what was going on!
And there was Nuna, the Great Pyrenees, to guard the lambs.

Lucy's lambs get to keep their tails! Neat! Lorna's lambs lost their tails pretty quickly - one year she let them keep them, but as the lambs grew, the tails became pretty messy, hygienically speaking.
