I have a couple of lambs that are not doing so well .As soon as the lan drover is in the field they start to lick the body and the metal part of the wheels. Any ideas,short of minerals  perhaps?

Don't know but m neighbour had a skinny ewe who'd stand for ages licking a sheet of old corrugated roofing, maybe try a mineral block.

I think it must taste salty, I found it funny that on an activity holiday a man in the next caravan spent so long polishing his shinny black 4x4, then went of on his jet ski and all the cattle stood around licking it......
