Tom, do everything you possibly can to milk colostrum from the ewe. Put her in a
stanchion to hold her still. You may not get a lot, but every bit is important.

Hi All
One of our young ewes just had twins. She is not accepting them and seems
to have no milk
I just cleaned them up and bottle fed them once with Advance all species
formula--thats all I could find right now.
I need suggestions bad! How often to feed? How much per feeding? How
long?
If you can get the ewe to hang in a VERY small pen with the babies, I
bet, within a few hours, she will start feeding them.

But watch to see if she's being violent, and kicking them.

Tom, do everything you possibly can to milk colostrum from the ewe.
Put her in a stanchion to hold her still. You may not get a lot, but
every bit is important. Measure what you do get and divide it into
two parts, one for each lamb. Do this as often as you can to get as
much colostrum as you
Tom, also those teets are small, and you may want to try this, for
milking, if you have a larger syringe around.

don't forget to bump upwards on the bag a few times to get it to let
down, before you try this.

Tom, are you sure she does not have any milk? We had a ewe that bagged up, had
her twins but would not let them nurse. IT turns out it must have hurt her when
the lambs tried to nurse to the point she would walk away. What I did is hold
her against the wall in the jug while helping the lambs to
mama into
thinking they smell like her.

Hi Stephanie,
I have had a ewe break a hind leg and lamb successfully. Not only did she
lamb large twins but her leg eventually healed. Now her broken leg sounds
similar but may have been very different from your ewe. I suspect my ewe
broke her leg from jumping off a four foot drop off while

Hi Stephanie,
I believe the leg can be splinted and that will make the ewe more
comfortable because it will reduce movement near the fracture
(painful!), and the bones will set better that way, as well. If you
can splint it, I wouldn't use pain medication because of the effect it
might
learn something! :) Good luck!! ;)
