On Monday we found our 7-month old ewe lamb in the field led down and unable to get up. It was a old day and we took her into the barn, wormed her, gave her multi-vits and drenched her with electrolytes. She had been in another enclosure with her brother since she was born but he had to go in with our ram to keep him company when he'd had his fun with the older ewes. We put Chantelle in with the older ewes but she kept calling for her brother and wasn't really settled with the ewes (including her mum).
Her eyes are watering a little and she seems to be loosing some of her fur walking round as she does. She has recovered some of her strength and is now out in the front garden happily eating grass and shuffling along.
any ideas what the problem is - the vet didn't seem to know! and what I can give her to get her to walk again on all fours? She can now balance when stood up but forward motion results in her falling onto her knees..........
