A Manual of Lambing Techniques by Cicely Hill
Lambing can be a challenging prospect whether its your first or your thirty-first season. This highly practical manual will take you through the period approaching, during and immediately after lambing. Advice is given on how to deal with a range of situations: normal and malpresentations; the sick in-lamb ewe; Abortion; pre- and post-lambing prolapses; the health of the newborn lamb and finally, problems and emergencies in the first few days.
