Thanks to all for your help in trying to determine what was wrong with
this ewe. Sorry to say she had to be put down
Lambs are doing great on the bottle. They will be well cared for and
live a great life
Thanks again to all for your help and concern

Does anyone keep other animals, particularly horses, in with their sheep
herds? My interest in sheep partially comes from my desire for
companionship for my horse. Any problems with the rams and the other
animals?
Thanks,
Eileen

I think that the best companion for your horse would be another horse.
I do have a couple of older horses in with some of my sheep. They
don't usually hang out together. Except for the ram, who has been a
little forward with the horses - they don't seem to like him.

I had a feeling this was the direction the ewe was heading. Like Cecil
said, diagnosing over the internet with just a little information is
very
difficult.

I'm forwarding this from Jim Fallis regarding his ewe:
Well
Sad end to the latest saga at the Fallis Barbado Farm
We were not able to save the ewe that was down. The twins were born
over the weekend. We had no idea she actually had tripplets. We
discovered her down Tuesday. By that time the dead fetus had began
to decay and swell. We attempted to extract, but just not enough
room and the ewe was too infected by the poision of the decaying fetus.
I had the vet put her down and get her out of her misery. Now I have
2 bottle babies on my hands. They will be loved and cared for very
well.
Thanks to all for your interest and mostly your concern and caring.

We had 1 horse in with the sheep and now the horse is gone!! I saw him
actually pick a full grown ewe up by the back of the neck and THROW her
across the field. He didn't like to share the hay or feed, and was
pestered by the lambs. I was terrified
