[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9679"] I have posted a message explaining a vaginal prolapse which was answered. Now I am looking for advise for the same mother cow. Her history is on 02/27/02 she had a vaginal prolapse for at least 4 hours. A vet washed the prolapse and reinserted it and closed with 4 stitches. The stitches were removed on 3/4/02 and the mother later calved that night. During the initial call the vet wanted to give antibiotics to her but we held off because he could not guarantee that she would survive. I have heard that a cow cannot be butchered if she has antibiotics on board. (This may be an old wives tale I don't know.) Now she has calved and both her and her calf look good and healthy. I am planning on keeping her for 6-8 months before I sell, does anyone recommend antibiotics now?? Thank you for any help. Russell Johnson [email=Rjohnson@ykc.com]Rjohnson@ykc.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
