I had a 4 day old lamb that broke his leg this year. Really nasty break too, his foot was at a right angle to his leg. I straightened it up and taped a splint on to it made from two sticks. Took the splint off last week and at 6 weeks old you would never know that his leg was broke before. At that age their leg grows so quick that it heals in no time.
