[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1267831, member: 18809"] Well, AI would take care of the breeding, so no weight bearing issues there as you know. The reason I asked is you obviously have a bunch of money invested in her genetics and rehabilitation. Our pastor has a three legged heifer, lost her foot from a freeze. He bred her (AI) and she gets around just fine raising a calf. Her back right leg is about 6 inches off the ground, and she uses it when she walks, but runs on three legs when she takes off. Not in your shoes, I might be inclined to try breeding her to see how she gets along. She is not in pain, and has no resale value because of her leg (except in a package), so why not try? Maybe we too got attached to this little heifer since we have followed her story since she was born. Just sad to see so much effort to save her and now she has no value... [/QUOTE]
