THE EWES HAVE STARTED LAMBING!!!
But, they aren't due for another 7-8 days. Which means, I too, am not ready!
However, I work quick to get back into the motions of lambing season, and all day Monday worked on this decent sized premature lamb.
However, two more ewes decided they too wanted to lamb early... those ones didn't turn out well.
So, just like that...
Summer Lambing 2020 has BEGUN!
Enjoy the ride!
#lambing #sheep #premature
THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING!!!

Sandi, Perhaps the first lamb came early Because the other twin died? Glad to see he is up and nursing on his own. Goes to show the extra care IS worth it! Cute little lamb. :) Happy Friday!

I always wondered how you recorded the still borns, and now I know. It's a brilliant program you have there with ghallager, very well informed and organised. This is a very informative video Sandi. thanks for sharing it with us. My days are complete, with Sandi and her Sheep!!!

Better early then mama being almost 3 weeks LATE (rolling eyes sideways) we have one that delivered late way late. Got surprise in the morning coming out and there is 2 lambies with a very deflated mama. They were huge 12 &13 pounders.

It's such hard work what you do Sandi but you have such passion and dedication and it's to be admired. 💗👍 Wondering if you're going to keep Kobe first born, Rusty and sibling and Ruby Sue ?

You're correct about the skin bouncing back. It was one thing we were taught when checking on patients. If you think they're dehydrated, pinch the skin. If it bounces back, they are. If it doesn't, they need fluid STAT.

Srly getting 'lambing ptsd' watching the first half of this 😆. All my lambs were like this- dead or not nursing/slow starters. Im a first timer so I allowed myself patience and forgiveness. Honestly though, your videos helped me out of some wicked jams!! My first was born breeched. Im like, "okay, I've seen Sandy do this! I can do this!" So you've helped lambs you've never even met! 🤗

The stunned look on that ewe's face at the beginning of the video just says it all. If it was one ewe, I would chalk it up to just one of those things. But two or more would have me begin to wonder if there's a uterine infection in the flock.

Hi Sandi! Good video as always. I love the smile on your face when you see your new little babies, early or not. Your "worry" is called concern, and it's the right way to go. Thanks again for the video!

@vwvw4 4 жыл бұрын

When ewes retain placenta, I'd recommend giving oxytocin. As well you can put a weight on the placenta, just wrap the stringy bits hanging out her vulva around a rod and tie with twine.Leaving it dangling about about 6" to 8" from the vulva, that helps draw the placenta out. As the placenta starts to ease out, just wrap up around the rod to keep the rod well above the hocks. If you're keeping replacement ewe lambs would recommend tagging (rams right ear ) (ewes left ear) then easy to tell who's who at a glance.

That is a nice looking baby lamb you have and you have to get ready to start feeding the babies and that one is just the beginning. I am sorry to hear that the mother had a still born lamb which didn't survive, but that is life and we have to learn to deal with it.
