no she doesnt seem to be kicking or anything and still wants to eat. She is a young girl.. not sure when cows are old enough to breed or should be bred I should say..If she was bred it would have been way before we got her. Her hips are sunk in, and her vulva does look swollen..could it be a UTI?

Yeah Im inclined to believe its from the changes in the diet..the original owners were feeding some kind of milk supplement and were not sure if he got any of the Does colostrum..unfortunately I dont believe they had any idea what they were doing ( not that I know much more) but at least Im...
