Unable to Live Without Chocolate or Coffee Posts: 1849	one of my cows cut her ear on the barbed wire fence. It was dripping blood then started a stream of blood out of it. I called our vet and they weren't too worried. said she would be fine. However I put a ton of wonder dust on it, and that wouldn't stop it, so I used about 1/3 box of cornstarch lol. A friend came over and wrapped a special pad pre-attached to a vet wrap type bandage on it and so far it stopped the bleeding but maybe its just soaking it up :/ So what do you use to stop this type of bleeding?? I know the ears are bad for bleeding, when they mark the calves they bleed all over but this is a big 1300 lb cow! lol I'm going to buy some blood stop powder at the store tomorrow. we are far from any store so I can't just run to the store! so I need to stay stocked up
