[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 12472"] well that rules out my theory about 'this heifer is too young to have a heart attack'. good to know. i'm 90% sure its not an absess, at least not one from the outside. ive seen tons of those, mostly due to prickly pear cactus, but those absesses are usually more baseball-softball size, easily drainable, and typically more concentrated in one area than this. this is spread out all up and down the jaw and on the other side too. and MUCH more swollen. the "new" vet came out today. i wasnt there but my dad gave me the report. he said he would bet money that it was a snake bite. (last time i checked snake bites made puncture wounds, but oh well.) ive only seen two or three snake bites and they were all on the leg. Dad did say that the vet ruled out lumpy jaw saying that it usually effects older cattle. said to give the LA200 again on thursday and he gave her some kind of steroid. Any thoughts on that V?
