[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 15158"] The Vet I normally use could not come out for that prolapse a week back. I had to use the "other" "expensive" vet in town. We have No Relationship like I have with my usual vet. Well I got the billing on Saturday for that trip out here. The Vet and an assistant. They Shot the cow with a tranq gun, then fought her and roped her, and then repaitred the prolapsed uterus, then sewed her up. The assistant jumped the 5 strand fence and chased down her newborn calf that was running loose in the woods...he carried the calf back to my arms. The vet also gave the cow some shots. My total billing is: $20 for farm trip $45 for prolapse work Total of $65 Remember this is Missouri > I[m a new beef farmer (10 head) > that attended a beef certification > class where they recommended > 'establishing a veternarian > relationship'. I called a loocal > large animal vet who came out, > spent 45 min looking at out > arrangement and visually inspected > the herd. No dirt was exchanged > between man and beast. > Got a bill today for $160 for a > farm visit. Is this typical or did > I step in "it".
