[QUOTE="Tony Jr, post: 87186, member: 463"] Duck footed means she walks with her toes pointed more outward than normal. Her back legs almost touch when she stands. I bought her at a sale, but she came from a breeder and I talked with him before I bought her. I would hate to lose her, she has great bloodlines and registered. What does 'foundered' mean? I don't think her hooves were trimmed before. I'll call the breeder and find out. The toes are still attached, but the hoove part is broke and loose. It's not flooping around but I just noticed a crack in those two the other day and when she puts pressure on them you can see them move a little. She doesn't seem to be in pain, but I want to make sure she stays in good health for breeding reasons. She is a 8 yr. old cow and her calves will be worth more because of her blood line. Is it worth my money and time to try to fix it? Thanks for all your input and please keep your opinions and info coming. :cboy: [/QUOTE]
