[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 627152, member: 968"] LEAVE HER ALONE. Tie it up if you want or cut it shorter. After 7-10 days definately give a shot of Lut. NEVER - NEVER EVER let a vet "clean it out". Research has shown this is the wrong thing to do. It causes more damage than if you leave them alone, although many, many vets want to do this. And never, ever give any antibiotic UNLESS the animal is showning a fever or acting sick. The cows natural BUGS will clean up all the little bits & pieces left in her. If you give antibiotics, you kill her good bugs that would have taken care of the rotting tissue. The Lutalyse will "clean her out naturally". If she keeps showing signs of heavy discharge, hit her again with Lut 2 weeks later. I think vets still "clean them" because it makes their customers feel better. So not that I spealed what "I" think is the right thing to do - what was all your advice? [/QUOTE]
