We have a batch outside 12 of them are lame all on the front right, the lame sheep in the house are 80% on the front right. I've noticed this over the years, just wondering if anyone else had.

ummmm over the years have seen them go lame in any of there feet if a trend and you have good record's have a wee look in those sounds strange but have seen familys that will tend to go lame in the same feet
maybe it's the foot they tuck under and keep warm leading to a warmer foot and bugs breeding faster i would check records tho or check rams to see if ones more prone for probs in that foot
