[QUOTE="jilleroo, post: 540373, member: 8192"] Is there a way to tell if the pelvis is cracked or not? We have no veterinary assistance available here. I usually assume that it is cracked if the heifer doesn't make any attempt to get up or crawl around and so leave them alone as far as lifting goes, for fear of doing more damage. We do roll them over daily though and rug them if its cold, as well as injecting with some pain relief. Then after a couple of weeks, sometimes more, if they are trying to move about or get up, we lift them. [/QUOTE]
