I have a pregnant Heifer (I thought 6 months max) who is acting like she’s in early labor. Is a false labor possible? Could it be a sign of miscarriage? She’s pacing, getting up and down, pressing her head into the wall, and it kind of seems like she’s straining too. She’s also won’t eat, and she’s usually pretty good at that.  She’s a little loose in the back end but her udder isn’t fully developed. She was totally normal yesterday, any ideas?

I would suggest you get your vet check her out asap. That is what your vet is for. None of us on here have seen your heifer or how she is acting so we are just guessing what it could be. I was going to guess, but then thought " why would I do that? Time could be most important in this situation, so get her to a vet or get your vet to your farm right away."  Hope everything works out for the good. If she was mine, I would already be on the road to the vet clinic with her.
