[QUOTE="Keren, post: 665894, member: 3195"] Gave two, 1 week old lambs an IM shot in the rear leg ... for joint ill ... these lambs are so emaciated it was impossible to give in the neck, no meat there. On the fifth shot, both of them were knuckled under in the back leg, similar to contracted tendons. Someone mentioned to me that I hit the sciatic nerve. Just wondering what the prognosis for these lambs is now? Is this something that will heal over time? I've given hundreds of shots like this in the back leg to plenty of lambs and adults, I've never done this before, and with my luck I manage to do two within 10 mins! :oops: [/QUOTE]
