We have a cow (charolais) who has been acting a little strange over the last few days and were wondering if anyone might have an idea of what is happening.
She is isolating herself from the rest of the herd, her ears are droopy and though she eats, she doesn't seem to have much of an appetite. She looks a little thinner than the other cattle, but not bad.
She is also due to calve in about 6 weeks or so (the vet preg checked the herd in the fall), and did not show the same kind of behaviour last year.
I don't think she is ready to calve (ie. not bagged up, no mucous dripping or loosening up of the backend).
Any ideas would be appreciated.
