I bought a small herd that included a black cow with a long toes on one rear foot. She gets around OK but seems to favor it and walk on the inside edge.
I asked the vet if he would trim it. He said he could, but it may take more than one visit, that "slipper foot" was genetic, and that it would just grow back.
Sounds like I should calve her out and then split the pair. Have you had any success with cases like this?
