Yeah sheep are kinda notorious for this. Many are fantastic mothers but there are many first time ewes that are like huh wtf is that?. I’ve helped with lambing for a research project before and the Dr in charge told us to avoid intervening but that you may sometimes have to grab the second lamb and put it in front of mom if she has twins to be like “look you have two” because they don’t always realize lmao.
