[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9705"] I have a black angus heifer calf I bought from a local sale. They said she might have been blind, because she was stumbling and running into things in the ring. I figure she was good enough to feed out to put in the freezer. Well she was not blind as I discovered later. My questions is in breeding this heifer or not. I believe the problem is in the hips some where. You can see her kinda wobble a little side to side. She runs jumps and bullies just a well as some of my other calves. Now that she is about 400 lbs I'm no sure about putting her in the freezer if there is a chance she can raise a normal calf. I figure if I keep her in the lot she is in after I have her bred she night be alright if I keep a good eye on her. She looks really good, mostly from being fed very well these last 4 months. My neighbor has a small black bull that I think would be ideal to breed to. I plan on taking her to the vets office and let him look at her to get his opinon. Any suggestion would be greatly appriciated. Thanks. [email=robtxcoondog@aol.com]robtxcoondog@aol.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
