    What causes this?

    I have one ewe thats been upside down 4 times in a month. I've had to bring her home and put her in a field that i can always see.
    She is a bit fat but nothing like she'll be in a couple of months time if she is in lamb.

    They have scratching posts. None of the others have add the problem so far.

    Has she been dipped? Some kind of itch on her back? Worth shearing her again (!)
    Perhaps leave a silage trailer or such-like in the field so she can scratch standing up?

    I'm sure someone will be along soon and have better suggestions !

    Or sell her, and let her die in some-one else's field.

    give her two shots of ivomec injection 10 days apart and see if it does any good
