In Reply to: O/T: Heifer down... posted by ChrisinMO on December 16, 2011 at 06:37:46:
Bleeding from a horn or her nostril is really not a concern.It will stop.Dehorning cattle produces lots of blood but in short order the horn stops bleeding. I would be more concerned about how she was caught in the feeder and whether she may have broken any bones in her legs.She may well have pulled muscles fighting to get out of the feeder and is just plain sore and in pain.Get her on top of lots of straw to keep her warm.Yes, if you want to keep her and she is a good heifer then a vet's opinion is likely to find a solution one way or another You never know with cattle,while she was caught up another penmate could have run her to get her out of the way,she may have injured her back going down..I hope it works out for you and shes just sore and tuckered out from struggling.
