[QUOTE="angus9259, post: 1448203, member: 7398"] With a stifle, customer kill or butcher and donate. She's not worth much and if she gets mounted in the sale barn - which is likely - she could get broke for good. Not sure an animal deserves that if there's an alternative. Bred or not, no one is going to buy a three legged cow. Getting another calf is a different matter. I calved one out with a bad stifle but had to put her in a separate paddock to keep the others from mounting her when she was in heat. Went through it once and it was brutal. Twice and I'd have had to put her in the ground. [/QUOTE]
