Dave I would start with 75cc of cmpk sub q 3x per day. Give her banamine as well. Make her a buffet of feed oats soyhulls
a little corn to see if she will eat anything. oats or soyhulls can be fed free choice. I also put a little pan molasses to see if she is in the mood. Be careful with corn syrup as you can easily over due. 2-3 oz of soybean oil can really bump energy but need to be careful she has some fiber in her guts. May need to drench her with some warm water and molasses 2x a day as well I figure about 2 quarts. May add some electrolytes as well gatorade in a pinch. Often times when down they will back way off on drinking as well.

Also want to start watching other ewes and sort off any slow ewes and feed seperate. If not cleaning up grain I suggest penning seperate and offer free choice soybean hulls. Also suggest offering those ewes really nice alfalfa. Give what they don't cleanup to other ewes and off fresh.

Good luck
