Have a lamb and a lot of questions! *UPDATE!*

I clicked the link, and I can see some stuff on your profile, but no video.

The head thrown back and inability to right himself sounds like tetanus, but if he had tetanus and was showing those symptoms he would be dead already.
 
Update!

Cautiously optimistic!

I couldnt find tube feeding supplies anywhere. so I got some calcium tablets and Vitamin E tabs, as well as calcium drench. I crushed the tablets and mixed it into his creep feed ( LOVES his creep) along with B vit drops, nutridrench and the calcium drench. He ate it all up! so far today I have seen NO spasms and he has not been laid out on his side at all. He's still been laying down, but in the normal position. Today I tried pouring goats milk on the creep feed and he ate that too! So, I CAN get milk into him, I just needed to be creative!
I'm really hoping this is the key to his recovery!
 
Great!

Praying for the little guy! All the defiency are due to not having mothers milk poor thing! Get as much replacer as possible into him and calcium tablets are a great idea!! Looks like hes in good hands! Hope he makes it

Had to take it easy on the milk today, he had a bit of the runs. Still did the supplements though, and a little milk, just not as much. I am thinking putting the dry milk replacer on his feed would be less likely to cause runs.. he's up and looking good though, he even ran a little bit!
