[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1836308, member: 24816"] The disaster of cows we bought the other night keeps coming. Out of the two remaining cows, one just doesn’t seem to be doing well. Seems slow. We thought she acted odd, in several instances, like refusing to go out of the head gate. She seems at a loss when not with other cattle to follow. Tonight was trying to drive a calf to the corner of the lot for scour pill, and this cow keeps on going after the other cow and her own calf turned back. She walked into the other calf and then once in the corner when I was trying to cut her out she kept walking into the fence and I realized she may be blind or at least partly blind. She doesn’t appear to have scarring on her eyes. She holds her head down and walks slow. But seems to know where the other cow is and eventually goes to the other one and eats along side of her. I noticed the night we loaded her she was hard to load was the last cow on and didn’t want to step up. [/QUOTE]
