[QUOTE="S&S Farms, post: 636292, member: 6262"] As long as you put padding around the pvc splint you should be good for 4 - 6 days with out worry. It bothers me to think that if you can catch the calf then you should do something for it. With animal welfare such a big issue it looks bad to see calves triing to crawl around to nurse. I am guessing if you dont interrvene then that calf probably did not get the right amount of colostrum from mom either just another strike against a calf surviving to weaning. Jeff [/QUOTE]
