I will do. I have made a harness for her and it fits and works quite well. A quick question as I have never had to deal with this before. How will I know that she is definitely in labour and not relapsing and trying to push it out...
Thank you. Sorry I should have been more specific. No way I can make something like that will post a pic of what I was referring to but thank you for the picture and tlresponse. Really appreciate it
Hi. Sorry been off line for a few days. Unfortunately it is like that on the farm. She has not yet lambed and was never supposed to be covered by any ram. She came with ewes that I had bought and was bottle raised by the previous owners. Not because mommy rejected her but because people can be...
This group has helped me so much in the last 10 or so months that I have been on it. Without all you guys I have no idea what I would have done... it's not that easy to get a vet out and sometimes not even necessary... Thank you everyone...
Ok it would appear that it was a urinary prolapse. When I did an internal at 10.30 and could only feel a sack I must have moved it which then allowed her to urinate and took pressure off the bladder... I must admit I have never seen anything like it before... she is on antibiotics now due to the...

Ok so it has been a week that I have had this little man... and it would appear that he was suffering from malnutrition. Momma had obviously stopped feeding him quite a while ago and the farmer had not realised this... so after much fighting I realised he would not take the bottle at all but was...
Ok will do thank you. How much do I give him?... yes I did set his leg... was taught by a very old farm worker here in sa years ago... that man had so much knowledge and alot of what I know now I learned from Tom...
