[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1736743, member: 498"] The vet did it. Basically pushed everything back in. Cut a small hole in the hide just behind the hip bone. He had big plastic washers. Two for each side. Had one of the washers attached to big steel needle. Pushed the needle from the inside out through the cut hole. The needle had a plastic tube around it. Once through he pulled the needle out of the center. Slid the other washer over the tube which has holes in it. Tightened it up and put a clip through one of the holes to hold it in place. Cut off the extra tube. Repeated on the other side. Took him maybe 20 minutes. In two weeks we will put her in the chute. Pull the clips off, reach inside her and pull the pin and washer out. We will probably sew her up after that just as insurance. She is headed to the kill plant in August so we aren't worried about any long term effects. Just stay alive and raise that big bull calf. If I remember I will get a picture of those washers on the outside tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
