Baymule's Lambs, 2nd Lambing

[NH homesteader]

Congrats on the ram. Sorry about the ewe

@SheepGirl and @Goat Whisperer both the vet and I didn't think she would make it. Maybe there was more internal damage? It was a hard call, she was clearly going down hill. Maybe if I had made the diagnosis beforehand, maybe I could have done something for her. Maybe.

Moving on to today's news......twins born this morning to Miranda Lambert. A healthy ram lamb and a beautiful little ewe lamb born with all her internal organs outside her body. I had to put her down. I sent my husband and our 9 year old grand daughter to the house, took a deep breath and did what I had to do. I wouldn't let either one near until I had dug the hole and buried her, then we had a prayer and hugs.

Bay, PLEASE don't take my above post the wrong way! I DO think you made the right choice with your girl. She was obviously suffering and you eased her departure of this world and ended her suffering. I think some can be okay and others aren't- sadly your girl wasn't one that could deal with it. So many things could have happened internally… I think you are your vet did the right thing. I hope my post didn't come across the wrong way.
I've thought about you often and hope your doing okay, I know how hard this is.


I am also sorry for the lost ewe lamb.
Really hoping some things change SOON with no more issues. You are a trooper, hang in there

Holy Cow, Bay.... Just don't know what to say except so sorry you're having such a rough year.

You're sure had more than your share of troubles lately... sorry that the ewe lamb was not meant to be but glad that the ram lamb and mom look to be doing just fine

So sorry about the lamb. It is so hard to lose them so young, wish I could give you a real hug.

I am so very, very sad for all your pain and loss. Often just doesn't seem to stop but, you've had your share and I hope the rest of the season turns out well.
