I'm so sorry! You just can't catch a break. Don't let this deter you from raising sheep. Just find someone in your area that you can go to for questions, a possible breeder or something? And when you're starting out with healthy sheep and not rescuing, it's much easier. Just use this time to read read read and everything will be much better next time!justusnak said:Well, I went out this morning, and Autumn was takeing her last few breaths. I tried to go inside and retrieve the babies. I could not get past the cervix. It was almost like it was sewn shut! I pushed around on her tummy...the babies were not moveing. They didnt make it either. I dont know how many are in there, I just cant bring myself to cut her open and see...no need too. This is not a good day either.
I am now wondering if I even should try to raise sheep. This is so hard...and Maybe I am not cut out to raise them? Maybe I will sell my Shetlands...and go a different rout...maybe dexter cattle? I dont know...my head is spinning...and I cant think straight right now.
