Last fall I bought a nice looking cow and calf pair. The cow is a black baldie with a fat bull calf. I brought them home and after about a month the cow got poor and weak. Ok I thought maybe the calf was just pulling her down since it was getting winter time and some of the bigger cows were pushing her off the hayrings. I seperated that cow and sold the calf. Fed the cow a litttle feed for about a month and had her on a small pasture by herself and she looked fine after that so I let her go back with the other cows. Well I was debating on selling her this weekend since she was bagging now and couldn't decide to chance it again. Well she had a calf today and the calf looks fine and sucked once already but she doesn't have much milk and already looks kinda poorly. This was a fine looking cow but she seems to have trouble staying in shape. All the other cows are fine. I wormed her last year and this spring so that shouldnt be an issue. Any thoughts? Think I'll sell her as a pair but would really like to keep her.
