brought cows into barn today and noticed one of them had a white spot like growth on its eye. does anyone know what this might be?

She was always alone away from the herd and I asked the farmer why he didn't send her to the sale barn. He said the bull always finds her and she gives me a good calf every year.
Ummm okay. Not to be rude or anything but what in the heck does this have to do with cancer eye. The cow in question is not blind. I am afraid I do not follow you.

bet she does
