[QUOTE="Wisteria Farms, post: 1118501, member: 6734"] Yes, Nes you are correct... came on slowly... which is why I blamed just the extra weight on her frame. We lifted her with the tow straps and got her moved outside but have decided to try something different so this morning we are going to try to get a canvas tarp under her with rods along the edges and do more of a sling-type lift. The straps seemed to impede movement of her legs... she looked more "splayed" than anything... will keep you posted. Calves took 2qts each this morning... GREAT!!! and we might take them for a visit with momma since they're pretty good on their feet... might do Granny some good to see/smell them. [/QUOTE]
