Hock hyperextention

[tjmdo]

I have a 2 day old heifer calve who has a left hock that hyperextends when she is walking. Has anyone seen this and will she grow out of it?

Yes, and yes. I see it a lot in early calves, the joints are not solid yet. Give her a few days and you will not see it.

Thanks! She's getting around ok just slow.

Walking good now! Thx

Walking good now! Thx

Time does seem to be the best medicine.
