[QUOTE="TheBullLady, post: 575995, member: 173"] Last year I had a cow that had woody tongue.. the first one I've had in almost 20 years of raising cattle. I had noticed the swelling pretty quickly, and thought perhaps it was an abcess, as I have had a few of those! She could still graze and eat, so it was probably two weeks or so into it before I hauled her to A & M. They diagnosed her, and gave her a shot of iodine ( I think that's what it was.. it's late, and I'm too glued to the couch to get up and check the report) and lost a bet with me when they (the vet) said she couldn't eat with that condition. :) Anyway, they had me bring her back in 10 days for a second treatment, and she was fine after that. It can be fatal.. you're right about that. It seems the cow either gets better right away, or goes downhill rapidly. [/QUOTE]
