I am so very sorry for all the loss. I went through some bad things this go around as well. Not fun, very devastating.
It is so discouraging but if it happens again next year I will know something is up. I didnt have these does before they were bred so I think they were too fat and when i tried to bring them down some I think that was part of the issue with the weak kids.
So sorry, prayers for comfort for you, but so glad you had survivors after all that loss. It just reminds me of something a vet on my old radio show once said, "Unfortunately when you have livestock, sometimes you're gonna end up with deadstock. Just part of the deal."
I’m so sorry you had such a rough time I hate seeing anyone that works so hard like you do have crap luck
