Short for "Pip Squeak," since this little girl was the third of triplets and abandoned by her mum near the boundary fence with our neighbour at Struan Farm. I was out on the lambing beat and found her on the ground, had to hop the fence for the rescue.
Yes, it was touch and go for that first bit (I'm realising this must be the case for all abandoned lambs). But when she woke me up baa-ing in the garage at almost 11 p.m. for a feed, and again at 6 a.m., I decided that she should be okay. HOPEFULLY, since she's still somewhat fussy about drinking...
So it's off to the Pet Pen with Rosie and Ruby. Hope she's ready for all that, Rosie can be slightly nosy!
