[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 166470, member: 968"] I have seen some Holsteins that had their vulva abnormally swollen & red. Vet said it was like an allergy reaction to the hormones :shock: Anyway, is she holding her tail out like she is straining, or like she's trying to keep from touching the vulva area? If she's straining, best call a vet - unless you are able to palpate her yourself & take care of a problem. And, it would be a problem if she has been doing this for a few days & she's been trying to calve. Does "the rest" of her look ready? Bag swollen tight? Although at 10, she may not get a real full bag. Is she thin or in good BCS? If thin, again, she may not have a very tight bag. [/QUOTE]
