I have been wondering the same?

Sorry guys, despite best efforts he didn't make it. Thanks for all your help and support. Sheep farmer next door would have pts sooner, but the wee man died overnight with a belly of milk inside him.

Bad luck. If there's something wrong on the outside there's generally something worse wrong on the inside. You did your best.

Very sorry to hear that he didn't make it.

I had one a bit like that last year - although not deformed. Massive single (as big as some of the other singles who had been alive two weeks), and was just rubbish, couldn't stand...

I milked his mother every few hours and fed him, finally stood after 18 odd hours, still wouldnt suck - i wonder if he was just too big....kept feeding him, thought hed come through the worst at three days and I was getting pretty fed up of feeding him. At which point he died, suddenly. Such are sheep, I'm afraid.

It hurts when a bond has been made though, even a tentative one. Hope mum is ok?
