"Me" is the resident Orf expert isn't he? I remember those gruesome photos of his hands!
It could be orf, but if it's just one ewe and just one lesion, my money's on she's speared herself on a nail or something. From the pic, there looks to be quite a deep central part to the wound - and orf is usually pretty much superficial. (In the 'on the surface' sense.)
