[QUOTE="angus9259, post: 1444891, member: 7398"] Just read an article on steer planet where folks were arguing between contracted tendons and joint ill. The original poster never mentioned if the calf in that thread had the issue from birth (contracted tendons) or it developed over time (joint ill). It looks 100% like contracted tendons, but, as I mentioned, I really didn't notice it that much at birth and it seems to be growing over time so I'm leaning toward joint ill - even though there's no evidence in the naval. My vet suggested some la 200 and vit b. so he just got those - but said it's hard to know for sure - but, as we all know, if you don't get joint ill early it's a tough battle back... [/QUOTE]
