Twinkletoes

This is Twinkletoes- she's a bit.....special.  












She was born with contracted tendons in both her front feet.   It's an abnormality, but not an uncommon one.  Some think it's their positioning in utero that causes it, or genetics could be at play, but we find it occurs in some of our larger calves.  

We find that when left to mother nature, it usually self corrects.  This little girl is only 2 days old in these pictures.  We've been monitoring her closely and are seeing daily improvements.  She is able to get up and move- so we chose the "wait n see" method.  I can tell you, she's a few weeks old now and aside from having a slight case of "duck feet,"  you would never know she had troubles.
