[QUOTE="dustynbob, post: 641296, member: 10418"] My daughter just bought a jeersey heifer, about 2 years old that is very thin. She has calved adn is producing 4 gallons per day. Milk looks good, and cream is thick adn yellow, normal. she does not have a temp, her eyes are bright, though she looks a littel dehydrated to me today. She was purcahsed at auction one month ago by a cattle farm, used for nurse cow one month and then sold to my daughter. she was vet checked, vet said she just needed TLC according to seller. He checked her for wire, reproductive health, etc. I would call this cow emaciated, not just thin. She eats some, but won't eat much grain, only a mouthful. She eats alfalfa hay while I milk her. Any thoughts? Johne's? how do I test her? thanks [/QUOTE]
