Ewe #614 delivered twins this evening.  Kenzie assisted in delivering the first lamb.  These lambs were boy/girl weighing 7 lbs 6 oz and 6 lbs 3 oz.  After a long time working to get them to stand the girl still couldn't.  The lambs were weak so we tubed them some colostrum.  We couldn't get the girl to nurse so we continued tube feeding her.  She had white muscle disease and died a few days later.   The boy ended up dying too.  We believe he also had white muscle disease.

Notice the hind legs on the lamb Kenzie is helping. When she did learn to walk this is how she stood.


Too bright!
