Subject: Help needed with a downer beef cow


We have had a downer beef cow for about a week.

She gave birth to a huge dead calf and when we found her in the morning she was unable to stand. I realize we should have checked on her and pulled the calf and this is our fault.

She sits up on her stern, eats and drinks well.

We used a hip lifter and a strap under her front to get her to a standing position, but she did not really do much there. Copy and paste this link in a browser window to watch her https://photos.app.goo.gl/x9XG6dSktfoq7XNo8

Should she be euthanized? Should we keep feeding her and trying to stand her up daily?

Thank you for your suggestions.
