[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 605325, member: 6198"] Thinking back to when we use to have lambs I'm thinking not full blown constipation. It's just hard for them to go. My MIL used to put corn syrup in the milk when feeding when that happened. They might not be getting enough fluids between feedings. just some random thoughts -are they the "runts" not getting enough, getting pushed out of the way? Yes i know one is 10 months, but it can still be the runt of that age group. -would a shot of mineral oil in the milk help them out? Lossen them up so to speak? -shot of electrolytes to rebalance the system. acidiosus (sp)? -When you bottle feed your lambs, do you feed each one separate or do you let them at a fence line bottle feed? good luck, let us know what happens and what the vet says.
