This is my two year old bull. I used him last year as a yearling and noticed he was travelling a bit slow after being with the cows for about 3 weeks. His feet started changing after I put him back in the bull paddock and he got very sore. A couple of times I though I might have to shoot him however he finally improved over winter and started putting on a bit of condition and when I put him out with the cows on the 4th October he was pretty agile and has been working the girls very well but about a week ago he started to get very sore again and this is all just on grass. I don't know what grasses are causing it our cool season grasses are now finished, we had a lot of white clover again this year. What ever it is he can't handle it so he is booked to go to Warwick Saleyards on Monday and the meatworks is just around the corner from there. I am very happy with his calves from last year and should get a few next year.
In the video you can see how he has his front legs right under him as he is sore in all 4 feet just like a horse that has foundered. His distorted feet from last year did not grow out as well as heifer/cows that I have had that were similarly affected, I guess maybe because of the extra weight he carries and on going flare ups.
Any how we move on.
