He and his sister were born at the end of February. The mother sheep licked her little sister immediately after the birth and the little one was allowed to drink. Ben was not touched by her and was not allowed to drink. The farmer fed little Ben with a bottle. However, feeding had to be done regularly and every hour. What should you do? The best thing to do is to call Gut Aiderbichl. Ben was picked up by our staff. He was not shy and looked around with his mysterious blue eyes. He is now a few weeks old, eats hay on his own and is still looking forward to his bottle of milk. In the meantime, he has also made friends: Lia and Larry, who are also bottle-fed.
