[QUOTE="Ozhorse, post: 1151269, member: 18575"] From the timing you just gave me and the length of her toe I think it is explained by burnt feet. They have been on poor feed since the fire and she has raised a calf, it may take a little longer than "normal" to grow as far as it has. She could have (dont know how they could have avoided) walked in burning logs and killed a whole section of hoof, which is still growing out. One of our bulls has a lesion that looks similar from the outside, but did not cause him lameness that I saw. I have seen a neighbours bull that was probably burnt in the back hooves, had big scars up both back hooves, had grown long toes and then arthritis from it. I guess the only big question is why I have had as little problem with burnt feet as I did. Thank you for the information. [/QUOTE]
