I thought that there might have been a possibility that the babies were still alive. She was 99.999% dead and I gave her a quick brain shot. Flipped her over, clipped the skin on the abdomen, clipped the abdominal wall, pulled out both horns, clipped them open carefully and pulled the pinks out. They were fully formed but all were already stone dead.
The possibility exists that I f'd her up. I cleaned that rack when she had just started birthing. I pulled her out and noticed a little blood on the back end of her. She was HUGE pregnant so I just cleaned the tub as fast as possible and put her back in. So maybe I killed her. I don't know. It was just shocking to me.
She was out of my stock so there aren't any birthing issues known in my lines. This was the very first one out of thousands.
