Try her with some ivy to get her to eat or some lamb pellets, treacle .
Not had any TLD as of yet but think I've had everything they can think of

Pretty cold and wet here still, have a frost last night. As I've still got room at the inn a few more days just to make sure there all supping and mothered than strongest will get kicked out to make room for the next, it's a juggling act that works fine when the weathers with you
