Bad day yesterday. Had a 10 month old Hereford x steer on an improved hill in the middle of nowhere with a swollen head, bloodshot eyes and dribbling/frothing from the mouth. Tried to get him in put he went for me. We ended up following him in the landrover which he also went for, denting the driver's door and a front wing. Managed to drive/push him into the pens and went home to fetch a tractor and trailer to collect him and take home. Had to get two quiet cows in to keep him company and help to load him into the trailer. He wasn't safe to be in with so we had to use the quad to drive him into the trailer and he had a go at that too. Vet came out and said he'd never seen anything like it before and took bloods, photos and gave him antibiotics and steroids. He's slightly better today I think but not sure how to get him back in the crush for his jab!
Any ideas @bovine ?
