## Footrot counts on lambs

### Description

Counts of two foot shape classes on 2513 lambs. The feet of 2513 lambs born in 1980 and 1981 from 5 mating groups were scored in two foot shape classes: 1) all four feet are normal, and 2) one foot is deformed. Two indicator variables were also recorded for the presence of the disease conditions scald and rot. The data are grouped into 68 sex, sire and mating group combinations.
