[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1456817, member: 24027"] Can you stick your finger or a stick between her toes and take a whiff? There's no mistaking the smell of foot rot or an infection! And is her temp normal? A Vet can get her foot trimmed and deal with any infection, possibly long enough for her to calve, but that's a temporary solution. I understand wanting to keep her because she's been a great cow - been there. Moved my girl to a small pasture where she could easily get around, took special care of her and trimmed her wonky foot regularly. Gave her Draxxin, Sustain, LA300 . . . nothing ever really cleared her infection, was most likely in the bone. She successfully calved - and stepped on his head when she was getting up. It was an expensive and heartbreaking lesson learned. For what it's worth . . . [/QUOTE]
