Hello. We recently bought a miniature Scottish Highland heifer. When she was finally ready to come home we went to pick her up and saw how bad her momma looked (baby looks great) I decided to buy her too, couldn't leave her there. She needs a lot of weight, bones are showing. She has eaten quite well and has free range hay & pasture. Today you could tell she's really hot, wouldn't really eat her feed, did eat some range cubes and is eating grass. She's drooling some but is drinking well, pooping and peeing. She does call to the others, but don't want to mix her in quite yet - they're all on open pasture and she and the heifer need the feed. We will be moving her to the side pasture where there's more trees and a much larger area so she can feel like more of the herd until she can gain weight and be introduced to the rest. Just not sure what else to do. Our herd is small, made up of mostly Brangus so these are new to me. Any input will be appreciated. Thanks so much!
