Yes she has aborted, hopefully just a hurt if there's no more aborted in the flock

WWould It be best isolate her just in case. Inject her with alamycin

Do isolate her. I’d always be watching them right around 5 weeks out as anytime I had a ewe abort it was around that time line.

I dont usually isolate them, theyre indoors and the lambing fluids would have the bedding infected anyway

She was out all the time...I've just took her away from the ewes that are to lamb and put her in a small paddock with a ewe thats lambed already. Didn't bother giving her anything she's eating fine and everything seems ok with her.
