[QUOTE="danl, post: 1227128, member: 229"] I would be burying a cow right now if I didn't check everyday. Went to feed last night and my old red cow was missing, she is usually waiting at the gate. Went ahead and fed and found her with on her back all four feet in the air, seriously bloated. She had laid where I had moved the bale feeder off a bale and evidently rolled off onto the snow and ice. At first I thought she had fell and broke something and was gonna just shoot her. I had brought some feed and put by her head and she started devouring it. I figured if she hadn't gave up I wasn't either. Liked to got a hernia trying to roll her over. Called good old son in law and he came and we got her upright, and covered her with hay, as she was shaking all over. Then the other cows showed up and started pestering her,and I was amazed when she stood up and the bloat went away. Walked her to the barn, put her in a stall with a bunch of hay. So far so good. She's eating pooping and peeling. Don't know if she is out of the woods yet or not. Just my two cents... [/QUOTE]
