[QUOTE="gerardplauche, post: 692151, member: 7497"] Ok - I have heard the many problems with Herefords regarding eyes, cancer, etc. I am a glutton for punishment so I finally bought one. I have a Hereford heifer (now bred by the way) that has recently begun 'growing' her hooves; they began extending past normal length of cattle hooves. This is starting to cause her to walk flat-footed. This kind of happened all of a sudden. It came on quick, I thought they were going to fall off. Then the growing stopped; they are not back to normal, just stopped the growth phase. I'm at a loss. I really don't know what to do with her. My plan for now is to wait and see what happens. Maybe it will be alright at least until she drops the calf... Anyone ever heard of this? Any ideas? :( [/QUOTE]
