Thursday night when I got home I noticed one of my cows limping. (She was fine Tuesday morning). I took her to the vet on Friday morning, and sure enough, there was a roofing nail in her hoof. The vet removed the nail, ground away some more of her hoof around the hole, and then packed it with what looked like cotton soaked in some sort of antibiotic solution. He then wrapped it up, and gave her another antibiotic shot. While she is not limping near as bad as she was Friday, she is still limping a little, and will not venture far from my corral. She will follow me when I have a feed bucket in my hand.
I guess the purpose of this long post is just to find out if she should be ok, in the next few days, or should I consider getting her to the vet again?
Thanks
