Time to say good bye


Two nights ago my sheep went into labor and i pulled the baby ou because it got stock in her birth canal and it didn't make it it was weak and i lost it. The worst happend at two in the morning i delilah didnt give out any after birth and the vet told me she was done but i didn't think she was so i could the emergency vet and last night delilah wouldn't get up so the vet came out so got the hot water ready and he went inside her womb to make sure there were no more and low and be hold there was another one! And i wish i was as expirenced as he is and well that baby was preached so it went back into the womb and it died in her the poor thing then it poisned delilah and the vet had to put her down. I can't believe this happend!!! it kelled me to have to do it but she was suffing but he said the age of her probally had alot to do with it. I know that you shouldn't have favorites which i love them all but delilah followed me everywere and now i'm sure going to miss that. Well im going to go check up on everyone. im out for now.




Bye-now

Nathan, I'm so sorry to hear this. I know how excited you were to be having babies, but to also lose the momma is just terrible. How old was the mother?

Please don't let this get you down from what you want to accomplish in life.

Hi, Nathan! I'm just heartbroken to hear about your loss of Delilah! It's a tough business, being a shepherd! I have had some disasters this winter, too. It hurts so bad! I want to give you some more goats. I think they give birth easier and they are soooo cute.
