Hi,
About 2 weeks ago one of our ewes gave birth to a very tiny baby (3 pounds). It only lived a day. Her colostrum never came in. It was a very thin and white yellow. We were not expecting a baby from her for another month and we were also expecting twins. She was carrying far out to her sides. The vet said he could not palpitate any more fetuses. Now here is the thing...she looks as pregnant as ever. Is it possible for a ewe to have two babies weeks apart? Has this ever happened to anyone out there? Also this is our 2nd premee this year. What could be causing this?
Thanks,
Leslie
