How do you care for a bummer lamb?
Firsly warmth is nessacery for survival as is Colostrum as it is vital to give the lamb a good immune system. It is best absorbed in the first 24 hours of the lambs li…fe. After that it is just digested. If the lamb does not get this it will not have any immediate source of antibodies to fight infection, and scours or other problems can result. The best source of colostrum is of course ewe's milk direct from mum but that is not always possible. Colostrum milked from another freshly lambed ewe is the next best option. If that is also not possible then fresh cow colostrum from a cow just calved will do. If that fails then colostrum substitutes are available but are expensive and not as effective. Lambs should get at least one day (500ml) of colostrum fed in 6 to 8 feeds before milk replacer is started but any you can get into the lamb (even as little as 30ml) will help. Bottle-feeding has to be learned by the lamb. The greatest success in teaching lambs to drink will be obtained by commencing 6 - 12 hours after the lambs have finished their colostrum or been removed from their mum. Small weak lambs will need feeding sooner and more often. To teach the lamb to drink, place the teat in its mouth and move the jaw by hand to stimulate sucking. If this does not work or there is a poor suck reflex the lamb can be fed using a stomach tube and bottle (available from clinic). Care is required and you should discuss this with a vet or experienced person before trying this or drowning may result. Do not overfeed. It is best to keep lambs a little hungry especially in the first few days. Overfeeding can lead to scours or milk bloat Look at http://www.cambridgevets.co.nz/data/usr/37/ACF33BC.pdf for more information on caring for lambs. (MORE)

Why didn't sherman try to stop the bummers as he marched to the sea?
Because he didn't see why he should waste resources on them. They were helping him to "make Georgia howl" as Grant had ordered - in fast, more than his own troops were, becaus…e the troops were under strict order not to commit assaults on the person. Those assaults were nearly always carried out by the lawless 'Bummers'. So Sherman could show a clean pair of hands when the civilians complained of violent treatment. (MORE)

Is Julian Assange a bummer?
I support Wikileaks and I can't see how anyone would think he's a bummer. And how can you disapprove of Julian Assange? He's trying to show us the truth, how is that wrong? f…or the love of god someone please shut this topic down! while i personally disaprove of Julian Assange* this questions hould be shutdown/removed as it will most likely lead to a future flame war about this highly controversial topic. *while this makes me a hypocrite with above i have been asked to explain myself and as such to the uneducated the anons of the world will pass the missing facts. Julian Assage has gotten international fame for "leaking" information barely warranting a unclassified sticker that's been printed on it. as a government worker the stuff i see day to day ranked protected is more damaging than this joke data. however my main concern is the pre leak data he had up. people did not know but prior to his fame he would go through sites for ANY data and post 1,000's of files of personal credit card and medical data. he was commiting id fraud and was to iggnorant to know any better. however my main concern is that he has caused level 1 treason and is trying to use the freedom of information act as a shield for his acts. there is a dam good reason any respectable journalist never posted information like this before (MORE)

How do you raise a bummer lamb?
The first thing you need to do is make sure the lamb is warm and fed. You can milk out colostrum from the any ewe who has give birth within the previous 24 hours and tube feed… the lamb 2oz. every 2-4 hours. Until the lamb is able to suckle you need to continue tube feeding. I use the AireVent baby bottle with a stage 3 nipple with great success. You can also use the black nipples that fit on top of a pop bottle that you can get at a local farm supply store. If the lamb just doesnt want to suckle you can try to put a pan of mild in the pen with it and see if it would drink that way. I have about 50% of my bottle babies learn to eat or prefer to eat from a bowl or bucket. (MORE)
