That smell.

How does the smell of a rotten lamb manage to permeate through lambing gloves?

I double gloved, scrubbed hands 3 times since and it's still lingering!

I'd sentence any serious criminal to a life of lambing rotton lambs.
I used to use a good scrub of pink swarfega to get it off, it does work but now I associate the rotten lamb smell with it.. has made it hard to use for me rest of the time :sick:

I was watchibg a show about the LAPD and an old timer had to deal with a decomposing body. He broke out the cigars after and blew the smoke all over himself.

One blessing from our aborted lambs this year is at least the ewes ejected them all fresh! Though I shouldn't speak too soon, we still a handful left :banghead:

I ALWAYS apply a barrier cream (Dermashield) to my hands & forearms before putting the gloves on for rotten lambs. It stops the smell getting into your skin pores in the first place, so a simple hand wash removes it after you take the gloves off.👍
