[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 30539, member: 87"] I had a bull prolapse several inches of rectum and it did not go back in spontaneously. The vet came out and put in the purse string suture. The darn beast wouldn't eat a thing and he also couldn't pass his bowels and would try to vomit. So, I had to give him enemas twice per day. The opening wasn't too small, he just hurt too much to eat or poop :mad: . After four days, I called the vet and we agreed to cut the suture (so if you really do this, leave some suture dangling so you can grab it when you remove the stitch). One minute after pulling the suture he went over and ate for the fist time :lol: , required no further enemas and went on to be a herd sire without any problems :clap: . A friend of mine who is a Brangus breeder, states that if they are small he doesn't do a thing with them and they have not been a problem. Our vet did the procedure here on the farm, but only after giving an epidural shot to reduce the pain of the suturing. Good Luck. :cboy: Bill [/QUOTE]
