so, co-incidentally a vet is actually coming to the island tomorrow so i will know for sure then but 2 days ago i discovered a lump in the right hand side of the scrotum of my pet vet-castrated ram lamb.
His behaviour the last few days has been much more attention seeking and wanting to sleep next to me (he'e been out with flock and independent since the autumn)
A few weeks ago he had been one of the ones chasing my elderly ewe, if you remember, and at the time i just put it down to the weather improving and the youngsters playing up
But a few days ago i saw him lip curling and then i found the lump and im 1) concerned that he is ok but now also 2) worried i may have a bunch of pregnant sheep none of who are in a condition to be pregnant (all too fat)!!!
Anyone had an issue with a veterinary castration not going as it should before....?
Im thinking im going to have to request abortion injections again, dont know if vet can tell if ewes are early pregnant without an ultrasound monitor....?
