		When holding lambs do most people keep to every other day exercise? We don't have a treadmill or track, and either chase the lambs in a big pen or take them out for a roughly half mile walk (which is usually some walking interspersed with jogging if the lambs are inclined). We then turn them lose and they sprint home.

		we will be excercising every other day when we start, some of our lambs really don't need it this year, I hope to have a big plowed area for them to run in, no treadmill either. My sister has some big sand hills they are running up and down on and a treadmill to walk backwards 3 times a week lambs are looking great. jim

		I wish we had some sand hills! So would you just keep to the every other day schedule, maybe up the intensity a bit? Along with adjusting the diet of course...
