Love the coop with the recycled truck topper. I actually had one of those once upon a time. I see you've perfected the one handed bottle hold for the lambs! I can barely hold one in each hand for my bottle monsters. I once heard someone say they could feed five bottle babies at one time. Two bottles in each hand and one between their knees. That's talent! Hope your bantam hen is successful.
Thanks I will be building on to the truck cap coop I plan to make it longer and wider. The 2 handed bottle hold is not easy but I was able to manage it long enough to take a few pics lol

Like the pictures! I love lambs. We have 12 at the moment, they are weaned, and so sweet. I hope your broody hen hatches out all her eggs.
I hope she is successful with her eggs. She is the first hen we have ever go broody. I'm not exactly sure when she started if it was before I went in the hospital or during but at least I have a rough idea for a count down to a hatch date. It would be great to see some chicks running around with their momma!

We have a guinea hen setting a huge nest of eggs. It's the third nest, something ate the eggs from the other two. Yesterday the lambs got too close for comfort, she was raising the roof and so was the male. Our Great Pyrenees, Trip ran up to protect her. Good boy!
