Clearview is not all brumbies here as we are beef cattle breeders as well. Another challenge in the day to day activities. This young fella had a mishap somehow and broke his hock. I have splinted calf breaks before but not 200+ kg weaners but what the heck we will give it ago. He was a good patient and I used the same technique I developed years ago with the calves by making a shaped splint out of poly pipe and shaping it with an LPG burner to fit his leg, 2 layers of cotton wool and 2 rolls of Elastoplast later this is what we have.
