We've got a 4 month old calf, up until a few days ago was absolutely fine. When we moved our herd to a different pasture a few days ago, we noticed she was a bit unsteady on her back legs, like they were occasionally twisting to the side on her. Or like she was crossing them slightly when standing, or like they weren't holding her weight well and shifting a bit on her.
She was able to walk, even run, but did trail behind the rest of the herd. We've been observing her for several days and have not noticed any improvement. Otherwise, she looks fine, is alert, eating and generally hanging out with the other calves whether laying down or walking though the fields. We run a completely grass-based operation using rotational grazing. Any help would be appreciated.
