She has one like the lambs. It isn't docked.

Oh, my, she sure is underfed. Getting her and those babies on some good land and hay, with sunshine and water and a scoop of sheep feed daily and she should recover nicely. As skinny as she is those lambs will pull weight off her as they suckle so make sure she has all the grass hay she can eat 24/7. Worming her and a good dose of ProBios for ruminents should have her looking good again in no time.

also try giving her warm molasses water. We put about a 1/4 cup of molasses in a 2 gallon pail with warm water and give it to our new Mommas every morning. BTW we just had another new lamb born this morning! 3 ewes so far this year!

Yes, she is in bad shape but seems to be doing. Thanks for everyone's input. I showed lambs when I was younger and in 4-H but that was years ago. So I needed a refresher on everything. Thanks again. -- I will keep you updated on her status.
