Oh, I am SO sorry.....she could not have been in better hands. You did all you could for her. Maybe she was just too premature to survive.
Lambs are quite fragile at times. I also lost a lamb that I had treated for joint ill yesterday. She took weeks to to finally fade.

I'm so sorry
We'll win, we'll lose some. We just have to keep trying, hey? It's the winners that make this wonderful, sometimes sad, hobbies of ours worth it.

HI, just wanted to say thank you for all your help. *I* am that friend with the lamb, we continued on and had our final Lamb May 9th kinda funny 2mths to the day we started, first lamb was March 9th lol
He progressed well, got a bit stuck so we did a slight assist, kinda funny total opposite of the night Gracie was born.. quite warm and mama was tiring fast. He's now almost 2wks and thriving. We still morn the loss of our Gracie, we got no other ewe lambs this year. I look at next lambing season with slight suspicion and hopes our poor Molly has a thriving lamb..
