[QUOTE="Farmer_Joe, post: 6862503, member: 26598"] I felt like this, had a really bad triplet and vet said over phone it was doomed. Which suspected as intestines were out she told me how to do c section just after shooting it all lambs also dead it quite depressing was a nice young sheep too. I had to shoot 3 before I even started lambing this year... lamb out doors 275 sheep, like I said usually an old girl maybe every other year this year at least 5/6 some dead some recovered (well put spoon in and are still ok holding lambs) and yesterday 1 lambed 2 cracking twins unaided past spoon which was good to see I tend to blame these on weather and uptake over winter, but as mentioned above mineral difficiency is an interesting one, however they have all been on a good sheep cake for 6 weeks pre lambing and first prolapse was 2 weeks pre lambing. I don’t give em loads though slightly less then is recommended thing each drop out of snacker is around 350 grams more to triplets last 2 weeks, 1 each to twins last 2 weeks and singles get vertually nowt [/QUOTE]
