[QUOTE="Wisteria Farms, post: 1115277, member: 6734"] Nesikep, No...not lame in any way... just waddles slow and is real slow to get up. Acts normal in every way but chooses to lay... she eats grain and hay laying down... eliminates laying down... only gets up to go to the waterer inside the stall... otherwise is laying outside chewing her cud. Thanks for the pictures... that's what we're hoping for is one last heifer out of her. I'd say you have your girl pegged right at a 3 as my Granny is just slightly worse off than that but I will say YOUR Rosie has a phenominal udder compared to Granny.... LOL. I already have planned that if we can get a live calf out of her, its going to be a bottle baby as her udder is just shot. A couple days colostrum is all I'm hoping to get out of her... She's ALWAYS carried a really large barrel...looking pregnant even when she wasn't... I'd have to go through some of my old posts but I probably at one time or another posted a picture of her (in her younger days, of course)...its going to be hard to lose her but it helps hearing the positive (like your post)... Thanks. [/QUOTE]
