wide variety of timings and techniques has been used based on the housing, production, availability of requirements etc. this current study was done for a morphologic evaluation of the cow's digit in different trimming times. a dairy herd with 2200 milking cow, free stalls barns, average daily production of 36 liters per cow was selected. forty cows were assigned to four groups based on hoof tr...

an anatomic study on ovine hoof to find a proper hoof trimming method was done. fore and hindlimbs of 15, two years old ewes. were studied all legs were transferred to vet college and divided by fore and hindlimbs, left and right and lateral and medial digits. toe height to ground and to the solar surface, heel height, sole length, toe length, toe length to the sensitive tissue, sole thickness ...

data collected in 2012 on 400 chickens were subjected to two-way analyses of variance to estimatebody weight, morphometric traits as well as the correlationbetween body weight and morphometric traitsin isa brown and ilorin ecotypechickens. the studied morphometric traits were comb length, beak length,head length, neck length, body length, wing length, shank length, thigh length, toe length, bre...

Ontogenetic evidence suggests a possible link between second toe length and prenatal androgenization, and therefore it is possible that a longer second toe is related to behaviors and traits previously shown to be associated with testosterone. In an exploratory analysis of this phenomenon, respondents provided self-reports of various behaviors and traits previously shown to be related to testos...

Five measurements of claw conformation (toe angle, claw height, claw width, toe length and abaxial groove length) taken directly from the hoof were compared with the measurements taken from digital images of the same claws. Concordance correlation coefficients and limits-of-agreement analysis showed that, for four of the five measures (claw height, claw width, toe length and abaxial groove leng...

BACKGROUND Amputation is commonly performed for toe necrosis secondary to peripheral vascular diseases, such as diabetes mellitus. When amputating a necrotic toe, preservation of the bony structure is important for preventing the collapse of adjacent digits into the amputated space. However, in the popular terminal Syme's amputation technique, partial amputation of the distal phalanx could caus...
