[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 11672"] Cattle are pretty resilliant, if the wound is that old chances are it will heal fine. Tissue will granulate into the area, and hide will form, the hair may never grow back, but it will eventually cover over. Proud flesh is a worry, there is a product called "wonder dust", once you have a good granulation bed, you should use this to prevent proud flesh from forming or to reduce the amount of proud flesh that does form. Also, if you have time and can get the calf up, hydro therapy will really help tissue swelling and help keep the wound clean, it also helps improve blood flow to the area by stimulating the region with a soft flow of cool water.
