My grandparents had a farm, and sometime during the 1950s he had a milk cow that broke her leg. The vet said there was nothing they could do for her and to put her down. Grandpa had a different plan... he ended up hoisting her up in a makeshift cradle, and kept her off her feet for around 6 weeks, and not only did she survive, she was fine for years. The vet was shocked...😁

Chris Ferrell that’s very rarely done with horses! Severely Broken legs just don’t end well! Look at the racehorse barbaro for reference. Broke his leg in the Preakness, did surgery to pin, screw and plate everything together, weeks of being in a sling, preventive care to reduce the chances of developing laminitis/founder in the good limbs. Came out of it in ok shape and was being hand walked at one point. They walked into his stall one day and the life was gone from his eyes. He just wasn’t the same horse he had been through the whole ordeal. Turns out he had developed a severe case of laminitis and ended up being euthanized. It’s not generally the fracture that kills horses but supporting leg lameness that takes them out!

Years ago my boyfriend's Dad built a little trailer that we use to move calves. You can fit 2 in at once if needed, like in the case of twins, and the cow can still see and smell them. Whenever we bring a calf up because it is sick or injured we use that trailer, hooked to the back of a 4 wheeler, and the cow almost always follows us. It sure beats having to chase mom around trying to get her to go where you want.

When we had a calf with a broken leg, our vet said to leave him alone and it would heal on its own, so that's what we did, and it healed by itself without any complications. But his mom stayed with him and the other cows would always have 1 of them by him , when his mom went to get water

My first calf was born on mother day and on my birthday and the cow a had 22 tag number. She was in labor whole day I could not get her to the cow chute so the vet could check to see how she was doing . She become protective over calf before she even had the calf she 10 has been through it many times before but, now she's calmed down. It nice pretty good size healthy bull calf that my Dad and Pastor thought that there was very unlikely chance that calf would make it. I came and checked on it when got home from church seen that were no progress my Dad was fixing to leave then I heard the calf bawling before it was completely out they were both walk within about hour. It definitely mothers day I will never forget.

Poor Erin.....unfortunately the farm/ranch ALWAYS comes first! Learned that growing up...you never asked or bought anything in the Spring...that $$ was needed for seed and gas....in the Fall (if harvest was bang on) you might get something you had wanted 6-7 months before! We should all show our Mother's every single day how important and how loved they are....one day doesn't really convey the feelings we have for our Mom's. Pick another day to do some special things for Mom....heck, surprise her once in a while and Mother's Day will go on all year long!

We live in Wyoming as well. We were given a calf less than 24 hours old that has a broken leg toward the top . Broken enough to feel it, on his back right leg. He never really got to learn how to use his legs without a break . He was a big calf for a first time momma. He either hit momma’s pelvis or a rock or something when he dropped. The vet said it would heal up by just feeling it. The vet said no pain meds, until they are a few months old because it’s hard on their kidneys. The calf wants to hobble around, but he isn’t wanting to eat much. I’ll have to ask them about that paste. I don’t doubt the calf is hurting.

Hey Erin, hope the rest of your Mother's Day was good and you had an enjoyable day with your sweet family!💐 I can't get over that mom jumping so many fences. Gosh, she must have been madder than a hornet to be corralled and not with her herd, talk about temper tantrums! Just glad she only broke fences and not her own leg unlike her poor baby. Sure hope the little calf heals quickly and is able to walk good. Hope #117 settles down and doesn't escape anymore. She seemed so friendly out in the field but was a turncoat after being pinned up.

Ah. Well yes - ranch life as i see it through your lens is definitely never boring. Erin - good job emulating a cow pony. Happy Mother's Day! I think you may want a do-over on Mother's Day - if so i totally back you on that! Or maybe just a dinner out - when dinner out becomes a thing again. Prayers are being offered for Sir Hops A Lot. Cow 117 might not like the prayers i am offering on her behalf - but if she suddenly calms down and pays more attention to Sir Hops A Lot - and he recovers - then she got the best of those prayers! Good job Mike! For the back - from personal experience - cold on the hurting part applied as long as you can tolerate it - at least a half hour - several times in the first 24 hours. Then repeat with a heating pad to replace the ice pack, using several times a day until better or until your temper rivals Cow 117.

Normally used for dairy cows prior to calving to help prevent milk fever, but it can also help with settling heifers down when they are a little nuts. It’s worth a try.

When you are raising animals you'll do strange things no matter what the day. I remember years ago when raising German Shepherd Dogs there just happen to be a very important dog show on Mother's Day that we needed to compete at. The day dawned cold, rainy and very miserable. I got completely exhausted and soaked by time the day was over but did well in competition with my dogs I'd need and raised. Love your videos and look forward to them all.

That's what we did with a goat that broke her leg. Now a year later you can't even tell she ever broke her leg. She runs and jumps on the toys just as well as the other goats.

It's amazing you don't have that happen more often! Glad you're showing people what it's like on the ranch good and bad. Some people watching don't understand the hazards as well as the cost as that vet want free especially on a Sunday!

Mom 117 needs a Valium "mothers little helper" I believe it's called, so she can calm down a bit. Poor little guy, I thought for sure when you said the vet couldn't do anything that "Veal Cutlets" was soon to follow.
