Reasons for prolapse

Excessive body condition (body condition score 4 and above; scale 1 to 5) has been proven to lead to Prolapse in ewes. It is advisable to not over feed pregnant ewes. Other reasons include Multigravid uterus (triplets more than twins, high fibre diets particularly those containing root crops, limited exercise in housed ewes, lameness leading to prolonged periods in sternal recumbency, Short-docked tails (but the condition occurs in undocked mountains breeds), steep fields and sub-clinical hypocalcaemia. You should be careful of feeding over feeding ewes and scanning ewes to be aware of the litter size can be a help in avoiding prolapse in your flock.
