OK, this is why I really decided to post.
In all my years, yesterday I saw something I have never seen before.
A neighbor called and asked me to stop by and look at a steer of his that went down.
When I arrived the steer was standing. Weight approx: 600 lbs.
Both back feet were broken off at the pasterns and dragging behind the legs when he walked. He was walking on the ends of his leg bone.
After I dispatched him to that great pasture in the sky, the question became, what caused this?
Nothing was found in the pasture that could have caused this kind of injury.
Brief anamal history.
This animal had three go rounds with pneumonia and was treated with antibiotics all 3 times.
Q. Have you ever heard of this happening?
Q. Could an overdose of antibiotics have caused this?
