I live on a small acreage and have been known to take in animals that need TLC. My last request was to take in a cow/calf pair. The calf was born with no eyeballs. I have not seen the calf yet, but was told that it is healty, except no eyeballs and the eye sockets are runny. The farmer is worried that once the cattle go out to pasture the calf won't do well and might get infection with no one on one. It is in the barn right now. I am wondering how these other calves are doing with no eyes. I did stop at the local vet clinic and before I even explained everything, just said it was born without eyeballs, they said to shoot it, it won't be worth it, etc. I am not in it for the money. So far all of my animals are pets, appearance doesn't matter to me and I don't care about the work. I just have a huge heart for animals. Can anyone shed any light on this issue for me.
