[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1006442, member: 12607"] Looks like typical screw claw/corkscrew claw to me. I don't see anything suggestive of laminitis. Proper hoof-trimming can bring some pain relief, and may improve lameness, temporarily. Evidence suggests a hereditary predisposition; so, I'm in agreement with previous statements - let her raise this calf and ship her. Not sure I'd necessarily cull daughters already in the herd - but I'd sure be watching them close for any signs of the same problem developing. I'm sure not gonna be keeping a cow that I've got to trim hooves on just to keep her marginally sound. [/QUOTE]
