HI, Thanks. We're so glad you're enjoying the honey. The bees worked hard this year.
Enjoy!

Sorry about your calf. I'm not sure why the links aren't working I'll send you the info I have on the splints. Our cows are very calm because they're worked with every day. This calf and his mom were kept together i a large area for a week or two and then moved with the herd. He was in the splint for about 3 - 4 weeks. After that we made a splint for him. He healed, his leg was ugly but he kept up and didn't have any other issues. We consulted a vet (by phone) who writes for Acres USA Magazine, Dr. Sheaffer. He had written an article about a horse with a broken leg that was being treated with hypericum. I called and he gave us great advice. We ordered the product through his office. Here's a link to his book; Homeopathy for the Herd Good luck.

The links are not working for me. Any suggestions? We have a 3 week old Devon bull in this splint, it's been 2 weeks. Have to keep taking him in to the vet for adjustments and since Mom is not tame, he's been in a nearby barn feeding from a bottle. He's still in the stall and is getting quite frisky. You say you let your calf out with the herd after a few days? How long was he in the splint? How much comfrey/hypericum did you use for how long? We started with homeopathic arnica & hypericum till the splint was set then switched to comfrey leaf tea and homeopathic symphytum. Will begin solomon's seal next week. Would love to get him back with the herd ASAP.

Thanks! She's very calm floating in the tank. I sit next to her to make sure she's safe.
