My grandmother has always said if you have critters you are going to loose some. Ask your vet if there is a diagnostic center close by you can send her too. We have one here about an hour from the house, if it's an old cow I just figure it was her time, if it's a young's or more than one at a time and I can't figure out what coulda gone wrong I will take one to town.
