Getting pretty good at this!

Today was another pretty busy day, abd the weather has still been holding! First we went to see about a cow that had punctures its side on a silage tractor so the people either wanted to treat it or send it to slaughter. It hadn't punctured and collapsed its lung, and it's temp wasn't terribly high, so we determined that it was for for transport and sent it off to slaughter. Hopefully the carcass will bar good and the people get money for it! Though its unlikely that the lungs wil be saved and the area of the puncture will probably be chucked out as well. Then we went to see about a calf that had a lump on its leg. It was arthritis that had been caused by bacteria that had gotten intro the joints and caused massive infection. So the calf will be emergency slaughtered because hell never live to be a cow that isn't lame, won't be fit for transport, and will most likely be in pain. Then we came back for a quick lunch and then went out to do more fertility testing. I pretty much did the whole thing myself this time, which was exciting! And then I pregnancy diagnosed 2 cows correctly (they were in calf) so yay! Exciting day! Though I do smell a lot like cow, so looking forward to a nice shower.
