Prolapse Retainer

This prolapse retainer can be used successfully to control vaginal prolapse in ewes. The ewe can be held by someone or tied with a halter. Lift up the prolapse and let her urinate as the prolapse usually interferes with urination. If possible wash the prolapse and lubricate it well. It can then be pushed back into place gently. Once it is in place, hold the prolapse in and insert the well lubricated paddle of the retainer in as close to the rectum as possible. Tie the strings forward and above the vulva to tufts of wool. Be sure it is fairly tight. It is usually a good idea to administer an antibiotic when the prolapse is in place.

The retainer does not interfere with lambing and can be left in as long as needed. Two weeks to a month should be minimum.

Ewes with prolapses should be culled as it will generally occur again next year.

Sterilization:

This lambing instrument is manufactured from a specially prepared synthetic to which foreign matter does not readily adhere.

Pull-EZE Lamb and Kid Puller

The Pull-EZE Lambing Instrument will save both lamb and ewe even in the most difficult cases – without danger or damage to either.
Instructions:

  • Place the ewe in normal lambing position
  • Hold the instrument in the left hand and place first three fingers of the right hand through the loop of the cord. Allow the fingers to extend their full length through the loop – this leaves the thumb and little finger outside the loop (see figure 1.)
  • Insert the instrument and hand into the ewe. When well inserted remove the thumb and little finger from outside the loop and place inside the loop. All of the hand is now inside the loop and free to use in the operation.
  • Take a firm grip of the head of the lamb and pull forward. PUSH THE “Y” OF THE INSTRUMENT WELL UP AND UNDER THE NECK .
  • Place the cord over the head and behind the ears of the lamb and with the left hand tighten the cord so that it fits snugly behind the ears. (To tighten the cord while the right hand is still in the ewe; place the flat end of the instrument against the right knee of the operator; this will steady the instrument, leaving the left hand free to pull on the cord).
  • TO GET THE LEGS INTO POSITION
    After the cord is in position behind the ears of the lamb, pull the instrument one or two inches forward toward the operator, which will leave a gap between the “Y” of the instrument and the neck of the lamb, through which the legs can be pulled. Hold the legs in position with the right hand and again tighten the cord with the left, using the method previously described.
  • The head and legs of the lamb are now lying in the correct position, in the loop and along the “Y” of the instrument, the cord has been tightened on the lamb is in normal lambing position.
  • To take the lamb away, hold the cord and instrument firmly together with the left hand and draw toward the operator. It is important that the right hand remain in the ewe with fingers extended along the head of the lamb at this state, so as to guide the nose of the lamb past the pelvis, as without this assistance the nose of the lamb may twist slightly and jam behind the pelvis.
  • As soon as the nose and two legs enter the pelvis the right hand is withdrawn, a steady pull is maintained with the instrument and the lamb will be born without stress or strain to the ewe.
