[QUOTE="dun, post: 969256, member: 34"] Several years ago the dairy had a heifer that grew good until she was abut 6 months old and turned out in a pasture along the highway. Wasn't long till she started to look poorly. The brought her in and fed her better and she continued to grow but just alwasy looked off. Finally at a yearling they decided t butcher her to try to salvage some value. When a cow/ster is butchered I always like to cut open the digestive tract, I find the structure of it amazing. When I cut hers open I found a coupe of blue plastic walmart bags almost covering the interior of the rumen. They had started to break down some but were still basicly intact. [/QUOTE]
