GLENDIVE, Mont. – Take a look around this snow-topped ranch where draft horses gather at the fence, and baby lambs are born inside the nice barn – starting life inside upside-down recycled barrels with heat lamps to make it warm and cozy and the mommy ewe nearby in the jug.

This ewe just had a lamb, who Leanne put in a blanket. The upside down barrel for the lamb with a heat lamp is next to the pair.
