White Mucus in Heiffer's eyes

We just had some pretty wet cold weather and one of my
feedlot heiffers has a lot of white mucus in her eyes.
One eye has it so bad, its nearly covered up (closed)
while the other is open but showing signs of the mucus.

She is eating and moving about just fine.

Any ideas?
 
A cold or eye irritation from the feed or weather change. To be sure you may want to temp her, but if she's eating well and doesn't have any outwards signs of illness, just let her go. But keep an eye on her for changes in her condition.
