Noticed this in a lamb and wondered is it off, he doesn't seem affected by whatever it is and is eating away

I’d say so. Put a bit of blue or green spray on it. I found leaving some Himalayan rock salt for them to lick prevented my pet lambs from getting orf this year. It might help clear that up too.

Thanks I put some blue spray on it already and will look into the rock salt. It will probably run its course anyway I suppose
