Question: I have a young ewe that had one lamb this last season. She is the most timid and gets pushed away from her feed. She has gotten really poor. I have checked for worms and it was good. I pull her out every night and feed her by herself but she is still so poor and is due to lamb. I am lost. All my other ewes perk up after weaning and even get fat but not this one. Does anyone have any ideas. She gets the run of the place and does not seem depressed just looks bad. I am open to any ideas. We do not have a sheep vet this way or I would get her to him as she had such a nice ram last season. OJ

Our Spring lambs produced 3 ewe lambs and one ram lamb. One set of twins, the rest were singles. The last ewe lamb had a white patch on her forehead, blackbelly markings on face and legs, but belly is brown not black except up at the front. All the sheep (9 total) are doing well with minimal care(no wormings, no hoof trimming thus far, no vaccines), dh has completed the fencing for this year. Next, a better shelter and handling area.
