[QUOTE="cowpunk'd, post: 1139789, member: 1265"] We have Dairies on the island so we have hoof trimmers. He does not use a tilt table, his portable chute is hydraulic, it supports the weight of the cow with a wide strap and then picks up each foot individually. Set up takes a half hour and the trimming takes probably 10 minutes for all four feet! This guy only charges $20 per cow. A good cow will make you back the $20. But you haven't mentioned if she is even lame, or her age. Maybe she is 5 or 6 and $20 trim now will give her another 5 or 6 good years before you need to decide. As for keeping the heifer, do you have any older offspring of the cow around, you could check how its feet look. [/QUOTE]
