Our vet came on Wednesday to de-horn a few young heifers, and to also castrate two bull calfs. We found the younger of the two heifers walking on only three legs the next day and bellowing. She was obviously in great pain, but we couldn't raise a vet. We thought she had been stepped on or maybe fell on the leg while still sedated. The next day, she was dead. There is another young heifer with the same symptoms but not as severe today. She will put weight on the leg, but not much. We think that it is the leg where the vet either injected the anesthesia or an antibiotic? We have given her pennicillin and pain reliever. Any ideas?
