[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1803977, member: 24816"] After watching one of the other new calves, it appears to have an injury to its back or hips the hind legs went down kind of like they buckled under as it walked trying to keep up with the cow. That was after I got it up. It had laid around most of the day. We brought it to the barn this evening to give it some colostrum, though we did see it nurse a little. Also with being slow and laying around like it was we didn’t want to chance coyotes overnight or buzzards again early in the morning. My thinking is that buzzards were bothering that pair too and possible that the cow stepped on the calf in the process. Hoping it will be stronger by morning and can go back to the cow. [/QUOTE]
