[QUOTE="CowgirlUpNY, post: 397453, member: 4092"] Just to give you all an update. I caught and penned the bull and to my surprise he let me pick up his foot (that was a first for him - and me too :shock: ) He went pretty good. He definately has something going on with his foot. There was a hole? about 1/2 inch long (I would thing the result of an abcess of some sort) on the bottom of his foot. Possibly that he stepped on something and then it got infected? (Just throwing out possiblities here more for my own train of thoughts) So I scrubbed it with Iodine scrub and soaked it for a bit. Well, it must have felt better after that because he was done with me messing with his foot, that and I'm sure that he was getting frustrated with the flies and such. I did give him a dose of antibiotics - it had some odor to it but nothing that would make you lose your lunch. And I also gave him a dose of banamine. I will catch him again today - hopefully and clean and soak his foot again today. Thanks for all your input. [/QUOTE]
