My ewe started with the usual signs and I watched and waited thinking best not get invovlved unless It's needed. After a while I thought time to assist and found lamb being presented back legs first and with a bit of adjustment a lovely gimmer popped out, Im still at the stage where each lamb is special!
Waited a futher 30 mins without any further action so decided to check to see if another lamb was there but felt nothing, I was deflated only one lamb but everything ok so I left to get a coffee and to get on.
Usual routine, kept going back and checking ewe and lamb ok, whilst doing daily jobs. After 4 hours and no sign of afterbirth I decided to check if I could see where it was and discovered a foot trying to protrude out.
Panic or survival mode kicked in and I managed to asssist the second lamb to be born.
I know that i had checked thoroughly and there wasnt another lamb. But there was the second lamb as healthy as the first!
So question is "Where was she hiding it" and "Whats the longest period of time between the first and second lamb (Twins) arriving?"
