As if pulling a 2-inch nail out of a cow's hoof isn't incredible enough, this hoof

just gets worse and worse. I'm completely blown away by the cow's hoof that we've just trimmed. This is the hoof GP, and

this is one of the most incredible feet I've ever seen in my hoof trimming career. So there are hundreds of cows at

this farm, and most of the cows that were coming today have no problems whatsoever. But as you've just seen, the cow with the

red spray all over her buttock has got a real issue. And in a few moments we'll have her up the race and into the crush

to see if we're able to do anything about that pain. And yes, by the way, that is red spray paint to denote that she's

got a problem and we need to see her today [Music] urgently. Okay, so she's in the crush and

clearly this outside claw is overgrown. Okay, I was going to talk about how overgrown the outside claw is; it

definitely is overgrown, but that's not the problem. The problem is bloody obvious; she's got something stuck right

in her foot. Come on, Craig, what's a... a nail? Screw? Could be a bit of a knife blade off a knife or something.

It's obviously been in for quite a while, 'cause it's actually worn down flat. It's a bit more obvious now. I'm

hoping that it doesn't go all the way into her foot, but to be honest, it looks like it does, and she is really lame,

which tells me it probably does go right the way in. I can see... I'm hoping it's just

the... Oh yeah, look at the length of that! That's unreal! Just that little bent bit was the only bit sticking out of her

foot. That's got to be... that's nearly 2 inches long, right? I'm assuming this has done

some damage because every time I touch this hoof, she's moving. Now it's all eroded around where that

nail [Music] was. Gee, imagine how sore she must have been. Right there is obviously more to

no way. Well, I wasn't expecting that. The whole of the hoof, the hole of our hoof's coming away. What a

mess! I expected to pull it out and find, normally you find a black hole where the oxidization from the iron and

nail has penetrated into the hoof. That's normally what you find. They don't normally do as much damage as this, but

this could be actually a bit of both: a problem caused by the nail, but obviously also a hoof

ulcer. I'm not sure. Right. One thing for sure is we've got to do a lot more work

to this, so we'll get a block put on here as quickly as we can and then get back

to this. So now that's blocked in place, it's time for us to, as carefully as possible, trim around this lesion. The damage from the

nail is obviously significant. I've got a feeling this is kind of a hoof ulcer

at the same time. I, I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, but as I trim away

here and being as careful as I possibly can to remove this top layer of detached hoof, but not cut into the

problem. Use the back of my knife to push that bit of tissue out of the way, and the razor-sharp edge to peel

away these layers. Now, this is definitely caused by the by the nail. You can see the blackness of the

iron that's tainted the horn itself, but it is sticking up like an ulcer. You can see...

decisive person, but in this instance, I'm really not sure. I think it probably is a bit of

both that nail; obviously, it has caused a lot of damage, but she's also got this sole abscess going on. I

think it just doesn't look to me like that's purely been caused by a nail. We still need to get rid of that

hoof horn that's round about the lesion. I'm almost avoiding it because I know it's not going to be

easy.  Need to get all of this away, though. I think we'll reduce this with the grinder quickly. I'm using the grinder

here to remove this wall horn here because it's extremely tough to cut away with my knife, and it's hampering my

access to the problem area with my knife. So, to me, it looks like this whole piece of horn is

detached. Wow! Well, that has never ever happened to me in my entire hoof trimming career. I've honestly never ever had a

circular piece of horn like that come completely away from a lesion. And just look at what is sticking out from

underneath. This is quite frankly absolutely incredible. I've never seen anything like this before. That is genuinely incredible, isn't

it? I've seen...so this nail looks like it's punctured right through the entire hoof capsule of the cow's foot, and it's been

there for a little bit of time, and that's allowed the corium to push out through the hole that's created,

resulting in this mass. It's genuinely...you can...you can tell I'm genuinely surprised. I've never ever

seen something like this before. Going to wash this entire area right. We need to shrink this up, so we're going to use iodine. We're going to

wrap this thing entirely. The iodine will penetrate into it. Do you know what? I thought that...

Loose mid-conversation, it's still sticking down, though, obviously. So we will wrap it with iodine, and it should

shrink this entire area up. Just look at how cleanly that has come away. Beautiful, right? We all saw how she's walking

before, obviously, feeling it, and it's little wonder why. So now it's time to let her out of the crush and see if

we've made any difference. So as she walks out of the crush here, yes, she's taking her time, but

I would honestly say she's walking slightly better than she was before, and it's little wonder. Having a 2-inch nail

pulled out of your foot is going to make you slightly more comfortable. Guys, if you made it this far, you might as well
