[QUOTE="Little Joe, post: 1784437, member: 39122"] The calf that was born right before Christmas the night it was so cold has been limping for a few weeks. It always lays under the hay manger so I assumed it probably got stepped on, it still got around okay just held it’s right back leg up like it was hurt. Today I see it’s getting around worse and has blood around hoof area on that foot, get to looking and the whole hoof portion of that foot is gone. Could it have gotten frost bite when born that caused this? Any suggestions of how to make it more comfortable or should I just put it out of its misery? If it can make it to weaning I’ll grind it up, but I’m starting to doubt it can. [/QUOTE]
