Hey Everyone,
so recently I've lost my pet ram lamb,
I've had him since he was around 4 days old so was hand raised as his mother passed shortly after birth..
He's always suffered with bloating since I can remember from birth but nothing as bad and extreme as the night of the 11th of June.....
I've come to the forum to seek some sort of help and guidance as I've already made some pretty strong allegations without actually 100% knowing and Google is actually being useless in this instance...
So the night of June 11th around 8:45pm I had my house cameras up on my phone and seen Lucy (aka Lucifer) acting so strange and getting down on this front legs crawling for a bit then getting back up walking some more, shaking his head almost as if he were sneezing but with no sound and making horrible little cries and his stomach was absolutely enormous, the biggest I've ever seen it! 😭💔
I notice this and instantly fly out of bed, run through the house and try to help him, my ex partner (current at that point in time) came out a few minutes after and basically told me he is ****ed and going to explode.....
He has never sort of liked the fact I had a lamb but had no say in it....
Now what transpired after he said that was an argument of him yelling at me while I was holding Luce trying to help him breathe, saying to get inside and make the bicarb solution before he dies!!!!!
I run inside to start making it, slam the door, he then calls me some names and then he drags him out of sight of the camera but can still hear audio and comes inside 5-8 minutes later and tells me he's dead.....
he was not with him for that full 5-8 minutes...
he is seen dragging him out of sight, then walked away locked the gate, walked back over to him then walks inside...
My question is
if Luci were to die of bloat would his entire body be
Stiff or limp?
Or stiff but neck limp?
would he generally die in a certain position?
I've googled for hrs and nothing is telling me on how to determine if my Sheep died of bloat or a Snapped neck...
Just over 4 months ago I lost my 7yr old English Mastiff to twisted stomachl surgery X2, I got a phone call from my vet saying he's made it out of his second surgery and was awake and in recovery, he's eating/ drinking and using his bowels and I should be able to pick him up in around 3 hrs...
An hr later I had a phonecall from my vet telling me he stopped breathing and they couldn't revive him 😭😭💔
so I'm quite hurt and still very upset at the fact he passed without his mumma around and only strangers....
Now I have already made the alleged acquisitions toward him about snapping Lucia's neck and he Denys it all but there just is something that isn't sitting right with me hence the whole "ex partner - current at time" comment but I feel like the biggest piece of **** for not being there when he passed whether it be from bloat or foul play because of my boy Zeus....💔
I will get justice if this is what has happened and I'm sorry to put my life story up but I'm just trying to give you guys some sort of insight and I can't exactly gain justice with only acquisitions and not knowing what physical evidence to look for....
any help would be kindly appreciated....
sorry once again 🤦🏼♀️
