So the big girl came in hoping lame yesterday.

Heat arround the tendon on her front left leg. Looks like she's taken a kick to the front of the leg.

Now there's swelling round the tendon above the fetlock, its not looking good. Suspect there might be a bone chip.

Vets coming Tuesday, so banadaged, boxed, and buted until then.
Have a real gut feeling this is going to be bad :-(

Hard to say to be honest. But no don't think so. Doesn't seem to have got worse though. Off to do some more cold hosing now x

My mares had three suspected bone chips. All were ok. Hope she's ok
