Update on Mounds

Mounds is hanging in there. This is the longest that I have managed to keep a sheep or goat alive with ketosis. She ate grain out of my hand a few minutes ago, which is a big plus. The IV is a lot less stressful than force feeding the glucose. I am minus $90 more for more bags of the IV and Dextrose. The vet on this side of town, who filled my prescription from the other vet was cheaper on all of it. Too bad they don't see large animals.

Going to take a nap since I will have to check at 2 and then at 5. The vet thought she would go in labor yesterday. The longer she holds out the better it will be for the lambs. I am thinking two.
