They are looking after me as if it’s Megan and Harry visiting their place. I’m very lucky , country looks good. Vegetation possibly a bit high to find pigs in some places. May have to zig zag thu paddocks into the wind hopefully diesel will pin point them for me. I strongly suspect all the people in the Bush out here are elated at the moment. No dust , soil with deep moisture content , stock feed lush and a stack of it as far as the eye can see. EASY STREET

I chose the more intense option of taking it back to camp and bottle feeding it formula. That seems to be going real well , it now has pretty much a guarantee of survival I’ll just keep looking after it , and by the time the owners return from holidays it will probably ready to jump in the paddock with the other recently separated lambs ( mine was born much later ) !
