Found a 2 year old cow with leg broke about 4 inches above hoof. Have had a few broken legs like this before and they eventually heal but limp. Last one was a young bull and sold him without a limp but spent more time taking care of him than I liked. Vet happened to be preg checking my cows today and he recommended putting in pen and doing nothing else even though leg is not perfectly straight. When would you sell?
