OK I'm having a couple problems

Ok i have a nine month old heifer that has been broke for 3 months, she walks very slow, it takes her 5 minutes to walk 5 minutes, what should i do??

I also have a small group of heifers that have went off, they have been off for about a week now :'( I have took away the free choice hay, and I am only giving them  10 lbs of feed a day, for 3 heifers that are weighing about 700-750 if i give it to them twice a day i cant get them to eat the next feding, so i dont know what else to do :'( :)))

On the case of the mysteriously missing apetites...check their pen for any metal. It doesn't matter how small it is, if it's there, a calf will usually put it in it's mouth.  I would put a magnet down them just in case they have picked up some hardware. Other than that, give them some probios, and make sure that they're not running a temp or anything...I wish i could be of more help...
