Any stories you want to share about how you got your ewe through the recovery process?
Since she showed signs of trouble, I have been using a combo of 'rambo's'* formula and my own for treatment until she aborted twin ram lambs. I had to help her with the process and it really took a lot out of her~especially after her already compromised condition.
After the birth she was exhausted and didn't get up at all for 24 hours or so. She wouldn't eat/drink either.
Since then I started to give her 'cornmeal' drenches a few times a day along with some of 'rambo's treatment', simply by adding soaked cornmeal with some water.
Today (thanks to freemotion's idea) I made a green grass smoothie drench for her. I just gave it to her btw.
I have been making her get up throughout the day as well, otherwise she just lays there.
Anyway I'm still searching for ideas or tips on getting her through recovery. How long will it take etc.
*I'll edit 'rambo's' treatment here in a sec. Thank you Aggie, for sharing it!
