Twins and caesarean

The sheep have decided to keep us busy now. Yesterday the lovely Lottie gave birth to twins (again about a month earlier than expected) but is unable to feed them due to mastitis. Lottie belongs to my neighbour and fellow small holder (well she's a small holder I'm more of a tiny holder). So she has them in her downstairs toilet to bottle feed at the moment. Well where else do you put 2 lambs when all your stables are full of horses?

Then during the night Wensley died. I understand sheep do this...die I mean. But when they do it they do it quickly, no lingering on for them. She was found early this morning with no signs of any lambs but half her guts prolapsed. It all seemed very strange as when my neighbour tried to pull lambs out she could not find any. So we did a Caesarean (with a Stanley knife, on the side of our lane) to find out what had happened. There were in fact 2 lambs in there...but obviously not alive. Just hope the people that come to collect the body don't charge for three instead of two...we did shove them back in.
