Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

With the thought coming together, the two of them rushed back to the kitchen, scooped up water, washed their hands and ran back to the sheepfold.

The notes said that if the ewe had a difficult birth, she would have to be helped manually.

Zhao Yeqing's hands were shaking. Looking at the lamb stuck at the entrance of the birth canal, he was a little afraid to take action.

After gritting his teeth, he reached out and held the lamb whose body was covered with slippery amniotic fluid.

Mu Xi was also a little at a loss. Recalling the records in his notebook, he put his hand through the birth canal and slowly pulled the lamb out.

The amniotic fluid made the lamb's body wet and slippery, making it difficult to hold.

Zhao Yeqing didn't dare to exert any force, and his face turned red.

Fortunately, there was no accident, the ewe did not give up, and the first lamb was born safely.

With the first baby, the birth canal is fully open, and it will not be difficult to give birth to the following babies.

The lamb was hot when it came out of the ewe's body. Now that the temperature is low, the lamb's body was covered in white mist when it was born.

After the steaming second lamb landed on the ground, the ewe turned around and licked the amniotic fluid clean for the lamb.

Unexpectedly, when Mu Xi brought the brown sugar water to feed it, it turned around again and started giving birth to its third head.

Both of them thought the birth was over, so they went to get the brown sugar water. Now they could only stand there with the brown sugar water, waiting for it to finish giving birth to the third child.

The three lambs struggled on the ground, stood up and fell down again.

The ewe licked the amniotic fluid clean and suddenly collapsed on the ground to rest. Zhao Yeqing was so frightened that he thought the sheep was about to quack, so he hurriedly stepped forward and handed the brown sugar water to its mouth.

I was relieved when I saw it sticking out its tongue to drink water.

All lambs must be dried. In today's weather, even if the ewes have been licked, they must be dried with a towel to avoid catching a cold.

The umbilical cord area of ​​the lamb must also be disinfected with alcohol to avoid infection.

After kneading the neine for the ewe, Zhao Yeqing gently squeezed out a little milk and guided the lamb to eat the colostrum.

The ewes were producing milk normally, which made the two of them relieved.

Seeing that all the lambs were looking for milk, Mu Xi put two basins on the fire in the sheepfold and ventilated them before closing the door.

The fact that all the ewes gave birth in one day was beyond their expectations.

After washing his hands, Zhao Yeqing sat down on the chair to calm down and gently made a fist with his hands. The warmth of the lamb in his hands seemed to have not dissipated.

Mu Xi also poured a bowl of brown sugar water for her. The warm brown sugar water relaxed her tense body.

"You have to pay attention. If the ewe's lochia cannot be removed completely, you will have to use anti-inflammatory drugs."

The postpartum care of ewes is not complicated, provided that these ewes are relatively worry-free and do not have too many problems.

Except for one sheep that secretes a lot of milk, the other problems are not big.

If there is too much goat milk, the lamb will not be able to finish it and it will remain in the ewe's neine, which will lead to inflammation of the ewe's mammary glands.

The two discovered it early and squeezed out the excess milk every day to make the ewe feel better.

Milking goats is a technical job, and the life skills of the two people obviously did not highlight the skill of milking goats.

Zhao Yeqing squeezed twice but couldn't get out. Mu Xi didn't know if he was too strong, so he was kicked by the ewe.

After trying so many times, Mu Xi finally learned how to express goat milk after getting two bruises on his chest.

You can't just hold the bottom, you have to squeeze it from top to bottom to squeeze out the goat milk.

Of course, fresh goat milk is not wasted either.

You cannot drink it directly, you have to boil it in a milk pot first.

After boiling it for three times, you can drink it safely.

It smelled a bit foul, so Zhao Yeqing added sugar to it and poured the first cup to Mu Xi.

He hesitated and took a sip, "It's okay. Drinking it is better than smelling it."

Zhao Yeqing also picked up the bowl and tasted it. He smacked his lips and was a little surprised.

This was the first time she drank fresh goat's milk, and it tasted different from the ones she had bought before. The milk taste was very rich, so rich that it was even a little bit heady.

"After drinking this, why do I feel like the ones I drank before are just like water."

The milk I usually buy leaves a faint milky taste in my mouth after drinking it, and it disappears after a few sips.

After drinking this goat's milk, the milky taste in my mouth lingers for a long time, and even after drinking water, the milky taste still lingers in my mouth.

The unfinished goat's milk in the milk pot quickly formed a crust.

I'm afraid I won't be able to eat dinner after I finish drinking.

Zhao Yeqing took out the starch from the bag on the wall, estimated the proportion, and poured a spoonful into the goat milk.

Stir evenly and put it on the fire to continue heating.

Stir while heating until the goat milk slowly solidifies due to the starch inside.

Once it turns into somewhat thick yogurt, you can turn off the heat.

Put the semi-solid goat's milk into a bowl, pick up the bowl and tap it on the table a few times until the goat's milk becomes flat, then place it on the table by the window to cool naturally.

Normally it is kept in the refrigerator, but the current temperature is just right if placed by a window not near a fire.

However, it solidified in about an hour. Zhao Yeqing turned the bowl upside down, and the goat milk inside had solidified like an oversized bowl cake.

Cut it into small pieces with a knife and put it on a plate. Use a spoon to scoop up a piece and put it to Mu Xi's mouth.

Mu Xi put down the laundry in his hand and opened his mouth to take it, "It's delicious."

Zhao Yeqing wrinkled his nose, made a face behind him, snorted softly, and secretly cursed the liar.

As soon as I put it in my mouth, I said it was delicious before even chewing it.

Zhao Yeqing said that she missed the man who was shy because he had no relationship experience and always subconsciously spoke in an evil voice and seemed a bit unpleasant. Putting aside appearances, Mu Xi was so young at that time.

It's not like now, when we just got together very soon and we already knew how glib and talkative we were, and we started to praise him without even eating.

She also fed herself one. The milk jelly was silky smooth in the mouth, rich in milk fragrance, and ice cold and very refreshing.

The original rich and overpowering milk flavor became less greasy because of the coldness.

It's really delicious.

When Mu Xi heard her saying that he was young, his face felt unnatural for a moment. He picked up the basin with the washed clothes next to him and walked out. His back looked a bit like he was running away.

All that was left was, "I don't know what you are talking about."

Zhao Yeqing heard it funny and put the half-eaten panna cotta on the table for him.

-

Lambs grow very fast and can run and jump within a week.

Although it's still a little unsteady, it looks very cute and the wool on it is soft, so it's very easy to wear!

Sure enough, all animals are cute when they are young.

The lambs have been eating goat's milk this week, and they have to start feeding feed on the eighth day.

According to the notes, the feed fed between eight days and half a month is called starter feed.

The starter feed is mixed with easy-to-digest concentrate and grass. The only concentrate left at home is the corn that has not been fed to the chickens, and the soybeans that were originally planned to be planted.

Mu Xi did not give up the soybeans, but sacrificed the corn feed for the chickens and ground the corn, and the fodder had to be chopped up before he could feed the lambs.

Zhao Yeqing cooked today's portion of goat's milk and left it outside to freeze hard.

Mu Xi came over to take a look curiously. She blocked the goat's milk and pretended:

"Guess what I'm going to do? I'll let you eat it if you guess it right."
