Hi I'm on the edge of the new forest on the wilts/hants border. My first ewe to lamb, a shearling, had a dead lamb first then a limp live lamb, neither had deformities. The second lamb survived about 3 hours but wouldn't lift its head, mum totally ignored them but i wondered if that was because she was a first timer.
yesterday we has healthy twins then this morning i had to pull out a dead lamb with a deformed head and slightly thin legs but they weren't twisted, its twin looks healthy.
I can't understand how one twin can b affected and the other fine
