[QUOTE="snickers, post: 853168, member: 13161"] we have about a 1000 # holstein that has been on corn/supplement since the end of may and the last couple weeks i have noticed when he stands and eats he will raise his foot off the ground about 6 to 10 inches and then he puts it back down something like the feet are sore and he does it with both hind legs. then when he walks he looks like the joints are getting stiff at the knee's in the hind legs or he kinda looks like he's got a corn cob up his butt when he walks. lol we've got 3 months of grain in him and i'd hate for this to be something serious, could it be foundering? i did see a raccoon in his lot one day so maybe he has caught something from the coon? he eats fine and when he runs around the pen for whatever reason we dont notice it. i probably am worrying for nothing but i'd appreciate any comments.
