I worked with a vet for several calving seasons pulling calves ect. You will find the vet can do little more than you have done. I would suggest you use a splint made of lumber 1x2's work best. Round all edges to prevent sores. Using duct tape can be bad if used next to the hide. Wrap splint with cloth then tape. Confine pair to a smaller pen as the little guys can be very spunky even with a broken leg.
All of this said, make sure it is a break and not a dislocated joint. Joints can often be repositioned but must be don with in a day or two. The vet would likely be needed to help you. I know of no pain killers for cattle and the little buggers are tougher than some folks think. This is not your fault, you did a good thing by saving the lives of both animals, seems some may have forgotten that. Keep your blood pressure in check. Good luck to you, happy calving.
