Well a first again I guess it had to happen sooner or later. Sometime between this morning and this this afternoon one of my cows got curious with a porcupine......Now I have experience with dogs but never a cow until now .
She has quills on the fleshy part of her snout a couple by her eye and quite a few on the side of her jowl. She is grazing fine and so far does not realize there is a problem.
SO question is how do you effectively remove them with little damage and how soon do I have to get them out?Also it must have been quite a mature porcupine as the quills are rather thick.
