new calf out of young angus heifer. calf looks good, but the heifer has a limp from back side.not bad ,but she does limp a little, any ideas?

A bit of pinched nerve from calving. If it's bad and they can;t get up it's calving paralysis. Yours is no big deal, she'll get over it in time.

I have a heifer that is limping this year after calved a nice bull calf and her left rear leg is paralyzed for two days. Her leg is improved now and is doing well.
