[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 870091, member: 637"] Wagyu Girl, Sorry for such a late response, as I am just seeing this post. I think you have Monensin poisoning. Probably the feed mix has this ingredient in it. Check and see. Cattle respond differently to different levels of Monensin. You may have seen some with stiffness in their legs when they walked; now some are getting hit harder internally. Diareaha, weakness in their legs; wobblliness, and an inability to stand. They also develop bottle jaw, where their lower jaw fills with water; it distends, but feels tight. Pull the feed away from them for now, if you haven't already, and re-calculate later. Sometimes more is not better. This feed just helps in the fermintation process and helps them to digest their food. Of course it has a lot of other added benefits as well. I hope you have already cured your problem. Chuckie [/QUOTE]
