If the dam was vaccinated a month prior to lambing, the lambs don't need their CD/T shots until weaning (8 weeks). If the dams did not have their vaccines, I would wait until the lambs are older, say around 4 weeks. I have always vaccinated dams though, so I've never had to give a CD/T to any lambs that early.
Forgot to mention, I would definitely give a tetanus antitoxin shot to any lamb who was getting docked or castrated and their dams did not get vaccinated.
