How do you check for blood clots?

venous blood clots tend to occur in the veins of the legs (DVT or deep vein thrombosis), but can move to the lungs (pulmonary embolus). Risks factors include long periods of immobilisation, surgery (in particular orthopaedic surgery and lengthy procedures) and clotting disorders. Blood clots tend to be painful, commonly in the calf, which can be tender, swollen, firm to feel and sometimes red. If you have no symptoms, you can't really check for blood clots (e.g. after a long flight). Other conditions that can mimic blood clots in the legs include: ruptured Baker's cyst behind the knee spreading into the calf, torn calf muscles, skin infections (cellulitis)

A cow looses her two month old calf how long does it take her to dry up and what is the risk factor for mastis?

It can take a couple of months for her to dry up. There is a high risk of mastitis, your best option is to get a calf and try to have her adopt it, we have done this many times on our beef farm. You will have to help the calf out and try to keep her from hurting it, you can even restrain the cow for the calf to suck. This is a long process and it need a lot of patience. I hope this helps, if you have any questions please ask!
