Sheep Prolapse - Simple Solution
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 мар 2024
- With lambing approaching, prolapse is an annual problem that occurs on most sheep farms. This video shows a simple solution to a sheep prolapse using a rope trick I learned from a Vet a few years back after a ewe that was stitched ripped the stitches after continually pressing!
I used a needle and tape to stitch ewes for a while but found it a horrific solution and only use the rope now.
Hope you find the video useful.
Thanks for watching, see you next time...

Thank you & yes I have seen other sheep farmers using your technique & shouting you out for helping them because it worked really well, I think it was Arnie from ewetopia farms in Canada 😊
Great to know it worked for Ewetopia 👌
Yes. Arnie and Lynn at www.youtube.com/@EwetopiaFarms sang David's praises twice, if I recall correctly!
been using the rope homemade harness for years, a sprinkle of white sugar on the prolapse helps it going back in I usually don't wash certainly not with cold water use lukewarm , if help was available (wishful thinking) I'd roll the ewe over & lift her by the hind legs and very little pressure needed , , watching youtube etc I am surprised by so many seasoned sheep people still stitching and using spoons , great video, good luck with the lambing , down to the last 20 here
Thanks for the tips 👌
What was the Sugar for ..
Lubrication or antiseptic I wonder ?
@@Coolcronani have not heard of this before, vets used to use sugar to help return a prolapsed inverted uterus post partum. Sometimes seen in cows.
@@Coolcronanforgot to mention, the sugar shrinks it.
Definitely use sugar, did one last year without sugar and was a struggle to get back in.
You explained that so well ,I have seen harnesses with a spoon ,but you way seems better
Well done,
First ever prolapse last night,
Panic stations, managed to borrow a harness bur it will have to be replaced with your technique to allow lambing.
Thanks for posting this video!
What a great video. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. This has helped me as a herdsman .
That's a new one for me for a vaginal prolapse. This is definitely a sheep school day. I was taught the rolling on the back, elevating the hind end and sugar technique for a uterine prolapse, works great. But then sutured the vulva. This rope technique is far less invasive. Thanks so much for sharing! Also love your portable headstall!
we are fans of using sugar as well
This is brilliant! I tried it today and it works fantastic!
Great video David, I had a ewe prolapse yesterday and used a harness but will try this in future.
My first ewe prolapse today rope trick worked a treat Brilliant
Glad it worked for you 👌
Very well presented David , every shepherd is confronted with this and we find its from older ewes and when checking previous years lambing records its older ewes with multiple births or perhaps from a hard pull from before. Rope popular for many flocks although need to be careful with underleg rubbing.We use the harness ,and wee a bit of Milton to clean the prolaspe. Great advert for the headstock .Good luck
thank you for your prolapse explanation, I find it very educational and will try it,
Thanks for uploading. Never had seen how to fix a prolapse like this.
Best video I’ve seen on this issue. Thanks!
You're are a smart man, this will be very useful to me Thanks
Excellent video again thanks for sharing great information
Fantastic video from a fantastic stockman. Well done!
Thank you 👌
You need to get her to pee first ! Just lift up prolapse and let her pee it then reduces in size by half and is so much easier to put back in 😊
Thank you for the tip...👌
Finally someone that knows what they’re talking about!!!! All the rest of it is old wives tales. The only reason a prolapse goes tight and so big is trapped urine. As you said, simply lift it upwards and gently move from side to side, moving it around…..soon as the pee starts flowing the prolapse will reduce to bugger all. I can’t believe that it’s not known by 99%. Even the bloody vets don’t know about it and will stand in amazement when I show them!!!!
Cracking video as always
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video
Great video David get way of doing it 💪👌
Thanks Gary 👍
Used this today, thanks for sharing will see how it goes.
Hope your sheep is OK. Good luck 👌
Good man well done good operator
Great video 👍
Thanks 👍
Good morning from Cornwall. I've seen you use this method before, clever stuff.i hope all you are well at the farm.thanks.
Thank you. Enjoying the calm before lambing kicks off
Many thanks David. Thankfully none yet this year. But I'm 5 weeks away from lambing. Find its the greedy ones for nuts tend to get any prolapsed. Like a lot of folk used spoon in the past. So thanks. Hopefully won't have to try your method but prepared if needed.
Do they lamb ok with the spoon?
Yes they do.
Best of luck!
@sheepschool365 ha. Well I'll b in bad humour having just watched the rugby
How dose the spoon work..I have never herd of that?
Brilliant 👍👍🐑🐑🐑🐑
We had that happen to us this year we just made a harness out of baler twin
Before putting back the prolapse you should release the urine and it would b much easier on the sheep to put it back in
Thanks for the tip, someone else mentioned that also 👌
Interesting 👌
Have you ever tried the harnesses? There really handy & adjustable. Find the rope cumbersome
Thanks for that, you’re a miller. I wasn’t crossing the rope under her hind legs. I’m gonna get a head stick out of your shop as well 👍
Thanks for putting it up. I hope I don't have to use it
I think I would find your yoke very handy for a lot of things, but my trusty halter served me very well. Lucky to have a seafaring husband who is very good at splicing ropes and making them. I would prefer to use Cetavlon (Savlon) as it is an obstetric antiseptic and non astringent. You should be able to get a large can of concentrate at the farm store. Expensive but lasts a very long time and you can use it on the humans as well. I also marked the ewe for cull so that it didn’t get forgotten later.I always hoped that my culls did actually go for cull and not bought by someone putting her through misery, hoping to get another lamb out of her
Here most sheep that people show have their whole tail removed. Will the rope still work without any tail left?
I used a rope a few years ago on one of my dads ewes and she lambed twins and no issues
Was told she was getting too much hay not sure if that’s the cause
Another good video and good day at sheep school
I find fat sheep with multiple lambs are more prone. Breeding definitely plays its part too...
Well lad when is my headstock coming do you know ? Ordered last week. Lambing says goodo here.
Good man. Will be with you on Tuesday 👌
What length is the rope. Bought the head lock of yous. Great for working on your own
Thanks Denis. Definitely makes life easier and it's hard to get help at 4 o'clock in the morning!
16ft or 5 metres of 1/2" rope 👌
Will your headlock be big enough for texel rams I’m just looking at on your website
Yes. The headlock will work with even the biggest texel or Suffolk rams due to the wedge shape design.
Good see.ya always something sheep broke out last.time see ya
Any other disinfectant besides detox would b good because detox is an irritant 👍
It's recommended for midwifery. Mind you I'm not sure what they do with it!
Savlon specifically, any other will take you down a precarious road. In fact any disinfectant that turns white when diluted is irritant.
Make a young man weep and another man old

I desperately want to buy one of your headlocks in the USA. I can find a few items close, but nothing as robust and adjustable as yours.
I've had a quite a few enquiries from the USA. Will have a look at shipping and be in touch 👌
Is it applied for cow
Yes. It is same principle for a cow.
Dear God! Is this something that happens to sheep like a normal problem?!? Omg! That poor sheep.
Еслбы я раньше увидел бы этот видео я бы спас одну овцу 😢
При такой манипуляции, овца продолжает дуться - видно как она горбится. Нужно хорошо обмыть можно марганцовкой (розовой) и вправить всё на место. При этом важно расправить рога матки внутри рукой. Иначе схватки будут продолжаться и животное будет стараться выдавить всё назад. Если всё правильно сделать то овца успокоится и достаточно прошить края в одном месте для подстраховки. Уколоть антибиотик и снять шов через 3-4 дня. Проверено много раз. В последующие года овцы котились и ничего не выпадало.
У моей овцы не раскрылся шейка матки и егнёнок умер, по совету вет врача я достал ягнёнка, было сложно в первой, всё было норм с овцой на спустя пару часов вывалился матка, я так и не смог заправить, так как не видел на практике как это делается, случайно наткнулся на этой видео, спасибо вам за советы!
@@user-ie2gz6sz9l конечно сложно делать то что ты ни разу не видел. Это для ветврача не сложно. А простому человеку, очень страшно что-то делать не имея представления о том как там всё устроено. Вы молодец что пытались помочь своему животному. Возможно в другой раз вы будете более уверены в себе и всё получится.
there is a higher chance in sheep that have went through tail docking and mulesing , prolapsing so i would not do both of those procedures or buy sheep that have went through because of cost , health, stress, risk of cancer and prolapse and many other factors, it is very old practice just like how surveys of medical professionals conducted as recently as 1986 indicated that infants younger than 15 months were still receiving no pain relief during surgery in many hospitals across the U.S.
if martin luther king jr and Abraham Lincoln can stop slavery.......then why can't we help make ourselves better? why can't we let light over the subjects that are hard for us to believe or except ? doctors find new illnesses but it takes' years because its only one lab , if we join together then we will survive while caring for our loved ones , our friends , co-workers, animals , pets , livestock ,the homeless , prisoners , the sick , the ones that have allergies to food or animal by products , our sons and daughters , the people that has terminal illness , the random kids that you play on your street,
we need to take care of our food like if it was our new born baby because your going to have to take care of it ,
the meat animal that you are growing , treat it like you want it to have a purpose in life because it does so take care of everything that is under your rule , since your the king of your farm . ( also please look at every option and research it so you don't regret bringing a fishing pole to the dessert)
Know wonder she prolapsed with one big bale of hay to one sheep 😅
Hay doesn't help! She was out on grass, brought her in for the repair.
Надо поливать холодной водой,она сама втянется
Если выпала матка то ничего не втянется. Только вправлять и желательно специалисту. А то можно потерять животное.
Abraham Isaac and Jacob would be so proud.
😂
You need to have a spoon in just so the prolapse dont pop back out
No not with that method
You're are a smart man, this will be very useful to me Thanks
Glad you found it useful 👍
