Hello everyone, I would really appreciate some help. We are a long way from a vet and none are available on the long weekend here in Canada. We are really concerned about a problem one of our cows has developed. Her ear is held on by about a 1/4 inch and there are growths in both ears. Anyone have any idea what this is or how to treat the growth?
We have a lot of cows and this is a first for us. Here is what the growth looks like:

The one shows the ear dangling with some colouration left from the growth- there is no real growth left there.
But the growth in the ear is a cumulative mass. It is in both ears. Barnacle like...
Thanks in advance for any help you might offer.
