Lime - at least twice a week in lambing sheds and after every sheep and lambs in individual pens. Dont spray iodine onto navel ,dip navel into iodine and turn lamb upside down and hold for couple seconds.
@@ivandavidson5599 hi Ivan, wouldn't make a diagnosis off the cuff but you can get joint infection with a bug called erysipelas at that age. You generally don't get big swollen joints with erysipelas infection, just pain and lameness. Worth a discussion with your vet if you're having big issues! There are off-license vaccination options. 👍🏼
Very helpful.thanks

Hi, would you know what causes stiff joints in lambs 9 - 10 months old?
What causes rung sheep
@@martineamonnugent8378 hi Martin, I'm afraid we still don't really know what causes it
Thank you for your reply
@@martineamonnugent8378 sorry it wasn't more helpful!
Calcium deficiency ?
@Krypton-jx4zg yes, likely to be implicated in some cases, but we also see ringwomb in ewes with no calcium deficiency. So it's far from clear cut!
