Betsy
Anniversary Herd
It was the dreaded nail trimming time again yesterday as I noticed on the weekly check that nails were getting a bit long. When I went to trim Betsy's I noticed that she had split one of the nails on her back foot horizontally and it seemed to be in two pieces. I trimmed it as far down as I dared (of course this was her brown foot not the pale one so I had trouble seeing the quick). Her toe is not swollen nor is it hot and it doesn't seem to be troubling her at all. I had another look at it this morning and it still looks OK. Do you think I should take her for a vet check in case something nasty has entered the nail and got into her toe somehow? I'm unsure what to do. She is eating and pooping fine and being her usual lovely self but as she is in season this week is a bit off with me as she usually is so not change in behaviour either.
