[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1057318, member: 20599"] Thanks for the thoughts--very appreciated! We did put a patch on but it fell off right away. (I don't think we gave her enough time in the chute for the glue to "set up."). She is registered; we bought her last Nov. She will be 16 mos tomorrow. Her body condition is good; she is eating well and drinking. Today she is laying down contentedly in the shade, with the cows all touching and no one feisty. I think maybe a couple of the big mamas were in heat earlier in the week and (as you predicted) she was "annoying" them. Today she's resting against one of them that butted her a little two days ago, and no issues (knock wood). i keep hoping she will get a bit of sight back; she does turn her head a bit like she can see a little in the one eye. When the patch came off, it left a big glue ring (like a bandit!) and I wonder if the 2 other cows she was having an issue with picked on her since she looked funny (I've heard chickens do that)? If I had to guess, I think the infection itself has run, or mostly run, its course with her, so it's just a waiting game. The vet can take a closer look at her when she comes to start the AI protocol in a week, and we'll see what she says. Just had the soil extension agent out, and he suggested putting the feeder cows into the brushy pasture, and keep the registered ones out until it's stomped down more, so we're doing that this weekend. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
