[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 523324, member: 539"] Based on your description, it sounds like a simple case of contracted tendons due to a lack of space in the uterus prior to calving. Depending on the size of the pasture, I would consider penning the cow and calf (easier for the calf to get to momma to nurse in a pen, rather than in a large pasture), and the calf's front feet should straighten out in a week or two. The act of walking around will stretch the tendons, and allow the calf to stand/walk normally. [/QUOTE]
