Lambs, like many other ruminants, may occasionally eat their own feces, a behavior known as coprophagy. This can happen as they instinctively seek out nutrients that may still be present in their droppings. While it's not a primary source of nutrition, it can help them obtain beneficial microbes for their digestive systems. However, if lambs are eating excessive amounts of their feces, it may indicate a nutritional deficiency or other health issues.
