Hi Heather,

 

At this point I'd be talking to Dr. Tibary and also I'd be speaking to the seller about splitting costs of a good repro exam.  Sounds like her fertility is affected by her twinning….and that would be of great interest to a good Camelid vet…they are studying twinning.  In any case it is time for the repro exam and they are pricy.  This would be frustrating for me to say the least. 

 

Here is Tibary's info as I think he's wanting info on the type of problem you are having…and he probably knows about as much as can be known about this type of reproductive camelid problem so he is the best at assessing this that I can think of.

He is at Washington State University but goes all over.  He can probably recommend someone in your area if he can't get to her himself.

 

You have certainly given this girl plenty of opportunity to perform and the bottom line is that for whatever reason, she is not showing herself to be capable of carrying to term.  They say that many dams begin with twins, but most drop or absorb one before the pregnancy is far progressed.  This girl does not …and that is of interest to camelid repro vets…
