Genetics, walking conditions, amount of walking, injury, over feeding hot rations, all contribute to bad feet. dun > i went for years never having to > trim a foot.. now i have 3 cows > that need it... 2 of them got it > last year for the first time.. > would some of you with experience > with this answer a couple of > questions for me? > 1- will this be a continual thing > now that they have started? > 2- describe how you trim them... > the hooves on the back feet are > trying to cross each other and it > seems that a lot is needed to be > cut off... but this will cause > lots of bleeding... am i going > about this wrong or missing > something here? > this is just one of those things i > have been fortunate with in the > past not to have to deal with... > thanks in advance > gene [/QUOTE]
