Yesterday I noticed one of my cows was a little sluggish coming up for feed. The day before she was fine. My cows have been on hay since November. She was up and walking around this morning but still seemed a little off. I saw her standing with her tail held up and out a few times and figured she might just be constipated. Went to check back on her at 5:00 pm this afternoon and found her dead with what looks to me like a prolapsed rectum?? Anyone seen this or have an idea what might have caused this sudden death?
Here's what I know about her:
