My current hoof problem is on a 3 yr old reg. Angus cow. Her right hoof is cracked/split horizontally (side to side) about half way up. I put her in a small lot so she did not have to walk far for food or water, and there is no mud or water for her to get into.
My questions:
1. Is there anything I can do? I'll be taking her to the vet but over the phone he didn't sound too sure he could do much for her.
2. I have a small herd, 7 crossbred, 7 reg angus. All but one of the angus has had problems with their feet, not one of the crossbreds have. Is this an Angus thing or is it just coincidence?
thanks,
Roy
