Vet I should think.

made me think of a calf we had last year. Born ok but not drunk so put him in a pen with mum and in the morning his eye was hanging out! No explanation for it, no sharp edges etc etc so the vet sliced it out and job done........ next morning after that the cow lay there curled up and dead! Cyclops the calf went on to make a grand at 14 months old. He needed to in order to pay the vets bill though.
