Enjoyed the opportunity to watch a kid being born during our class a few weeks ago. The kid's head was out, but the front legs were no where to be seen so we brought the mother into the maternity room. One of our teacher's assistants maneuvered the kid so that she could get both of the front legs out. Once the kid was delivered Mandy, our TA, got palpating gloves on and palpated the mother to see if there was another kid. To our luck there was one more kid in the womb and we got to watch the whole process of getting the kid out.
After the first kid was delivered Mandy removed the goop from the kid's face and then stuck a piece of straw in its nose. Sticking the piece of straw in the nose forces the kid to take its first breath and sneeze.

After all that excitement we went to work processing three little lambs.
