Y'all can call them nannies. I'm a purist: I say ewes for sheep and does for goats.

We also had a couple of "nurse" nannies
that were Sanaans and we would leave them with the kids during the night in a separate barn. Seemed to keep the kids quiet. We milked mornings and then turned the does out with the kids and separated them at night. The only ones we took the kids off of were the kidlets show does.

After the lamb gets bigger (or slaughtered), does not the
nanny continue to be milkable? Sorry for my ignorance on this; I have
milked cows, but it has been so long, some of this stuff is confusiong
