A Sick Sheep

We've been dealing with a sick lamb for the past few weeks: Miniel (one of the twins pictured here) has had a bizarre problem. The wife has blogged  about it alot, her latest post being a call for general help and advice.

Some more research tonight has pretty well convinced us that she's suffering from a septic arthritis of some sort, and we're exploring all our options. It's becoming rather important to save this little girl. She has a nice fleece and would make a superb petting zoo denizen (due to size and disposition), but I've got to confess that the real reason is simple emotional attachment. Considering the investment in time and energy we've put into her already, it'd be unnatural not to be attached to the little bugger. So any advice is appreciated - leave a comment her or over at Dances with Ewes if you have any clue that might possibly help.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
