[QUOTE="Jamer, post: 5390552, member: 5697"] I concur, however there is a lot of lameness myopia in the industry and locomotion scoring is being used as a tool to get producers to grasp the nettle. You can see from the retailers point of view they do not want the general public watching lame cows cross the road in front of them while the farm gate has a sign displaying they proudly supply whichever retailer/processor. As you so rightly point out the key is to deal with lame cows asap and work to prevent but sadly there are plenty who think a shot of pen strep is all that's needed until the foot trimmer turns up in 3 weeks.
