Vietnam First Day at Work

Well, another hot, humid day over here. Had my first few visits to check various things cow-related. We had to a laparotomy (surgery on the flank of a animal) to check for a twisted gut. Poor heifer wes in bad shape!!
The Vietnamese workers/vets are great to deal with - friendly and dedicated. I'll enjoy this experience. The project is huge, the set up not always ideal  from the animal's point of view but hopefully things will improve.

The food is great!!

                                           Surgery with lots of onlookers...
                                          Stuck into it
                                          A view of the shed
                                          One more backwards step and a 8 metre freefall...
Local farms next to the project - will be swallowed-up one day
