Sheridan, MI - 1/2 hr. from the mitten's middle | From the size of the hernia, I think he'll be okay through the withdrawal time for the antibiotic. You'll know if the hernia strangulates as he will be unable to defecate and will act uncomfortable. We have had really good meat from cattle that size, and from the feed programs you describe him as having been on, I think he would be worth butchering. You may have to add a little fat or oil to the burger to keep it from sticking when you cook it, but that's not all bad. Keep me posted... |
