I have a hogg that is a poor doer and the best way to describe it is that it walks on its toes with its back legs straight and it taking very short twinkle toes steps . Nothing apparently wrong with its feet. Any ideas plus treatments gratefully welcomed.

Weeks worth of penicillin, legs sound like joint-ill?? If you sell dead weight Chuck it on with the next batch, if it goes through you’ll get something for it, if it gets binned you’ve got rid of it!! Winner winner!!
Get rid asap they only get worse, get the odd one a year.

The hogg will have had joint-ill as a lamb. Got better but with some permanent damage to the joints. Comes back to haunt them later on as larger lambs/hoggs. Won't get better this time.
