Sadness over Marshmallow



We have had an incredibly busy time since I posted last I will try to get everything caught up this week. 

Marshmallow is the sweetest sheep but something has been wrong with her.  She falls often and would just lie waiting for us to pick her up. Marshmallow seemed to like being carried by us.  She didn’t seem to mind getting her face scratched by the barbed wire fence or shocked by our electric fence.  I contacted the breeder we got her from and she did some research but said she couldn’t find anything that it was except possibly a vitamin deficiency.  She said we could bring her back and get a refund but we all loved Marshmallow.   Preteen had chosen her after her first sheep was killed by coyotes, and hoped to use her as a possible 4H project.    
Last weekend we were working on our future fencing Marshmallow stuck her head through the netting and must have fallen by the time we saw her it was too late to save her.
