[Jacob-list] lamb posture

[ARTHUR PARTRIDGE]

Well the pure jacob lamb is standing/walking funny. She looks like someone
took a rubberband and rubber banded her legs together and they "dried" that
way. She stands and walks all bunched up.

Could it be White Muscle Disease?  Has the lamb had a Bo-Se injection? 
Many people give their lambs this as a routine part of their lambing
operation.  I didn't because the ewes received plenty of selenium and
vitamins in the diet.  I did have a syringe full in case I needed it.  Your
local vet should have some Bo-Se available.  It is important to do this
soon to avoid permanent damage.  OTOH, the stiffness might be the result of
the birthing process.  Then again, some Bo-Se might help with that.
