Yesterday evening I noticed my prized Angus plus bull, that's six years old, had a noticable limp with his right rear leg; he drags it as he comes up with the hoof while walking. He's fairly tame and I walked up close enough to look. No swelling, nothing obviously wrong with the hoof, we really haven't had any mud b/c of the lack of rain to complicate things. I'll be heading to the vet today to have a talk. Can't pen him until Thursday.
If I'm lucky maybe just bruised - I do have some limestone roads, and maybe he bruised it. If I'm not lucky, he's hamburger. Never had a lick of trouble with him and never lost one calf, or even had to pull a calf from him. Come to think of it, I've only retained a few heifers from him. Wish I had more.
