1/19/25 Kid's come in early in the morning to tell me one of the ewes (Misty) is "lambing", quickly get dressed and head outside. First timer here so I let the ewe be and keep checking on her every 15 minutes. No progress after an hour so I start reaching out to people and try to figure out what exactly is going on. Turns out she has prolapse :( I go back out and it has self corrected (phew) and Misty is back to her normal self.
Moved everybody to a new paddock.

1/20/25-1/21/25 Prolapse is happening more often , make a trip to Commerce, TX to pick up a spoon from a friend. Got Misty spooned and harnessed. It honestly sucks to be having an issue like this not even a month into having them, but I do believe that everything in this life is a test from God, and I know he is teaching me to trust HIM every step of the way (yes, he can even use livestock to test our faith). Hoping for healthy lamb(s) and recovery for Misty soon.

Haven't had any issues moving them anymore. I am trying to keep up with this journal, but with a household of 10 it gets hard at times. Hope everyone is doing well in these cold temps.

I’m sorry Misty is trying to prolapse. Having sheep is an ongoing lesson in patience and faith. Sheep will teach you things you never expected to learn.
God is definitely teaching me a lot about myself through the sheep!

Unfortunate to experience a prolapse, but you recognized it and took care of it. Hopefully she will go on to lamb normally. When is she due to lamb?
Both Misty (with prolapse) and Peggy have due date of January 19/February 19. I hope it’s sooner than later.
