Friday morning i went out to the barn and found my best heifer dead. She was in a pen with 3 others the same size and they night before she was up and eating and acting fine. She didnt seem to be sick or anything and no signs of a fever. She also had no signs of being bloated that night or after we found her. We could not figure out what caused her to die. We took her to Purdue and they did a necropsy(sp) on her and found absesses in her liver and above her spleen. On was as big and an inch and a half in diameter. They came to a conclusion and one burst and got into a blood vessel which put her into shock and thats what killed her over night. We are still waiting for the tests to find out what might have caused this. I was just wondering if any of you have had this happen or have heard of it happening before
