I have a six week old steer whose hoof fell of Saturday morning (1/2 of the front left hoof came completely off0. He limped a little on Thursday and Friday but I didn't see any swelling or signs of illness. When I went out Saturday morning he couldn't put any weight on the foot and was hobbling. I could see part of his hoof dangling free of his leg. As I was moving him to an area where I could work with him it fell off. There was a very small amount of blood. I tried to give him a shot of LA 200 - as I was by myself I was only able to get about 2cc in him. I did get a good coating of blue lotion on his foot. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Any suggestions? He is nursing and eating great. Just can't put much pressure on that foot.
