[QUOTE="steveR, post: 9229260, member: 66976"] Bit of an event here around the time of your good wishes. Old gal with Triplets who had been a bit mardy for a couple of days started around 8-8.30 and popped the first out. Left her to see if she kept going, but seemed to lose interest. So Steph (fresh from her Lambing course at the local Vet's) cracked on and sorted out a muddle of feet and head, got it presented properly and pulled No2, I got on with the resuss, and she pulled the last backwards. Tad nervous, but I said the ewe was open properly and it should slip out which it did with a pull. (y) Got No. 3 breathing well and moved the ewe and lambs into a pen, and set about getting some milk off her to tube the lambs as they were a bit groggy... But, the Milk was as thick as axle grease!.... :( So I warmed some colostrum from the freezer, and did all 3 with a overnight feed, one under a lamp tonight and see what Mum is like in the morning🤞 Wondering is she was dehydrated as she drank a full minpot of water... ? So A great start for Steph and delighted she managed a successful lambing, FuF strikes with the ewe.... :unsure: [/QUOTE]
