Alpaca Master
My experience is with alpacas so I'm not sure this would be true in sheep but if that were an alpaca, more than likely they have a uterine torsion. But like I said, I'm not sure that that would be true for sheep.

My son just called. They are rushing my DIL in for emergency C section. The baby's heart rate is dropping.
Well the vet came out today, no change on the ewe. So we tried to save the lambs. Only one was alive but never took a breath. The ewe's cervix never dilated, and she was put down. She had toxemia. Poor thing, never had a chance.username taken said:Brody's Broodello, make sure if you do the caesar on the ewe, you give her a shot to induce labour first. You will have a much higher chance of success if you do this, as opposed to just doing it before the ewe goes into labour.
