My 4 yr. old bull seems to be loosing control in his hind end a bit. He is real unsteady walking to the point of sometimes falling and going down. Lies awhile then gets back up and goes a little further. It almost as if he is drunk from his middle on back. Did not seem hungry today. He was out with the bred cows. No noticiable external injury. He pees a little at a time but not normal and his manure looks like horse poop and has a snoty film like mucas in it. Not normal looking manure. Vet says probably has a spinal injury and could possibly treat with anti inflamiatory. He was being fed only hay, and has been treated just like the other 34 cows he was in with. They are all bred no open cows. Anyone seen this before and what you do for it other than hauling to butcher. Thanks Wick , PS there is about 8 inches snow here. Maybe a fall could have hurt him. I don't know.
