I have raised a brangus steer that I bought at a sale with 2 other calves and when he recieved shots or was loaded and unloaded he was the most calm one in the bunch. Got him up to 1200 lbs and took him to butcher. Even at that weight in pen or trailer he behaved better than the angus did.

Kuddos to her, you have a rare hard working woman there that when you get home will be soooooooo happy, but dont mess with a rutine.

I had a cow calve and it had contracted tendons on both front legs, he's about a week old now straightened right out, for the first two days the calf seemed to leap, never seen it walk right but now its just fine! :)

Vet said due to the size of the hoof and I guess the feel of the calf but he stressed the hoof size was large, the cow is very heavy with calf. He did say it could be large and boney or large and heavy weight, that was his guesstiment!

Had vet out for a check, 100# calf he said she's got a few days watch her close she made need help he said, just loosening up alot! :?
