23 month old angus heifer (open – headed for the freezer), for more than a week now she is lethargic, many times stays off on her own, & when she walks it's very gingerly as if all feet hurt. She eats some (not like the rest as she is standing by herself as if she is not feeling well). She has only today started to show a little sign of favoring a left rear leg but nothing I would treat at this time (plus there's no obvious swelling or other outward signs). I treated another for foot rot the other day (came on fast & she could hardly put weight on it – two days later you wouldn't hardly know she had a problem; all happened within the time span I've noticed the this animal's sickly behavior). The foot rot animals don't have this behavior that I've observed in the past (ie off on own & lethargic), so to hit her with LA200 doesn't seem like the answer; not sure what to do other than monitor. Any thoughts?
