This morning a 3 year old ewe gave birth to a big female lamb - but it never lived or died soon after birth as it was born without a lower jaw. Never seen anything like it before but after looking on Google, it does apparently happen sometimes and is known as 'agnathia '
Saw the vet on an unrelated matter today and mentioned it. She said there had been more lamb birth deformities than normal in our area this year. They had tested some for schmallenberg but no positive results yet.
Anyone else come across something like this before? I suppose things like this just happen sometimes.
