[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 783571, member: 852"] 5wt calf, don't think it's been broken more than 48 hours, probably much less. Broken above the hock, significant amount of swelling but the ends move easily. I consulted (over the phone) with two vets prior to setting it, one vet said go for it, the other said shoot her. What do y'all think? Moving out in the field: [url=http://s339.photobucket.com/albums/n465/IdahoLabs/cow%20problems/?action=view¤t=lancasterranch007.mp4][img]http://i339.photobucket.com/albums/n465/IdahoLabs/cow%20problems/th_lancasterranch007.jpg[/img][/url] In the trailer: [img]http://i339.photobucket.com/albums/n465/IdahoLabs/cow%20problems/lancasterranch003.jpg[/img] Just shot her up with drugs, doesn't look comfortable there but I don't want to stress her/move her yet: [img]http://i339.photobucket.com/albums/n465/IdahoLabs/cow%20problems/lancasterranch004.jpg[/img] Set - as stable as I can make it. Taped, padded, fingers crossed at this point. [img]http://i339.photobucket.com/albums/n465/IdahoLabs/cow%20problems/lancasterranch005.jpg[/img] For the vets - I don't know a lot about bandaging, does that need air or will it be okay for a week and a half? figured I'd check on it and rebandage in about 10 days when I'm back up at the ranch, and that'd be a good opportunity to evaluate whether or not it's healing.
