    Still Born

    Today I got home to see find a still born, so I'm not sure when it came out. Do they come out at the same time as the others?

    Usually they are just part of the delivery time. I've had them come first,middle and end of deliveries.

    Right now she looks like she'll shed in a couple of days, so I was confused. She doesn't appear to be having contractions at the moment.

    Sorry for your losses. Just because one appears stillborn, however, doesn't mean they really are. We thought one was, s/he was all kinked, yolk still attached, etc. Woody, as we call him, is doing fine for now. IMO , give it time, and if it gets out of the sac, then try to help it live. Sometimes, the little scrubs will surprise you.

    I was assuming it was dead, because it smelled like it'd been born a day or two ago, which is why I'm confused as to what's going on with her
