[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 468322, member: 852"] The stiffness in the others might have something to do with a selenium deficiency. The area you and I are in is pretty deficient in selenium, and a lack of it can cause something commonly known as "white muscle disease." Basically, selenium is required for proper muscle function... from the basics like legs and tongue, to lungs and heart. Personally, I'd probably give them all a shot of Bo-Se or Multimin/Mineral Max, as that's a lot quicker than waiting for them to eat loose minerals or a block, and you're not at the mercy of their digestive system.
