I would use the mother's milk on my finger (as much as possible), gently force my finger into the lamb's mouth and repeat that several times. Then I would move the lamb close to the mother and place the teat, with milk exposed into the lambs mouth, gently squeezing the teat to express milk. I think the lamb will start to suckle independently.
Lambs should be bottle-fed for about 6-8 weeks until they are able to transition to solid food like hay and grain. It's important to gradually wean them off the bottle to avoid digestive issues and ensure they are getting proper nutrition during the weaning process. Consulting with a veterinarian or experienced livestock handler can help determine the best feeding schedule for individual lambs.
