I got the vet to knock this guy over today for a while, to deal with what I expected was going to be a puncture wound infection. It didn't look like it once we cleaned the mud off. Any comments or experience?
I saw him wince a while ago - tried to find the note I thought I'd made, but weeks not months. Now I think this thing was getting to a size he'd started to notice and something hit it, rather than that he stood on something sharp which caused an injury then.
If we had better yards and the bull wasn't quite so jumpy when he's there, we'd have tied his foot up for a look but health and safety are a big deal here and who wants to rest up with a broken something for weeks? Takes a while to concrete in new posts too. :shock:
