[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1816960, member: 25884"] Yes, you can initially trim too much if you get it down to where it bleeds. Just like a sheep or goat hoof. That is why I do it in a couple stages. Agree with [USER=12520]@Silver[/USER] that it could be "folded under" ...and that place that will stay damp, collect manure etc, and cause hoof rot also. Had the vet work on the hoof of a neighbors bull when he was at our place doing preg checks on our cows... Think it was only an extra $20 bucks because the bull was too big for the chute... so he gave him rompum and maybe something else... bull went down easily, trimmed it up and gave him something else and he was up and walking in 15-20 minutes. We had brought the bull to our barn to do... very quiet and gentle.... [/QUOTE]
