We came today to check on our treated limper to see how he was getting on and also look at this new reported limper.
All 19 seen and well, the original limper we treated before putting on was very well. He even jumped up trying to get into the bucket. Rest and dryer ground seem to have improved him greatly. He's now no longer limping. (He has a mostly Black face and blue and yellow ear tags).
After inspecting the rest of the flock we couldn't see any additional limpers. Everyone ran to the bucket well and after looking at them graze no one was holding a leg funny. It could have just been a sprain one developed over the weekend that's gotten better over the days. The white one with black patches around her eyes and no horns seems a little stiff but not lame. It could just be dur to the chilly wet conditions, she's older so it may be of mild arthritis. We'll keep an eye on her.
Thank you for checking! The weather has been particularly miserable lately so we really appreciate you coming out to check.
