[QUOTE="IL Rancher, post: 326866, member: 4097"] I've seen front legs so messed up that the give out like that and they walk on their "knees".. We got one like that the first year we were doing cattle. Sold him at the sale barn and he took a beating, lol... He was still light but I am sure he wouldn't have gotten past 500 pounds on those legs... Looked like a case of lupine poisoning but we don't have lupine. Talked to the vet about it when he was young.. Said he would grow out of it.. When we had maine bulls a lot of calves had real messed up front ends at birth but just about all grew out of it by 2-3 weeks... Mostly it was just weak tendons.. As far as legs breaking like that, he had to get them stuck somewhere.. [/QUOTE]
