[QUOTE="Redgully, post: 1572357, member: 33533"] I bought a cow and she had very runny poo. Was was purebred from a registered very good herd. Once she hit our green grass she never became solid. Always a mess. Johnes doesnt exist here but rumours do so i had her tested and clear. Vet explained to me she most likely has damaged villi in the intestines that stops her absorbing the water right at the end and nothing to worry about. But the look was terrible so she was placed on the cull list straight away. Was bought in calf and had a really nice calf and raised it well. Tested calf for bvd and free of it. Apparently if you give a cow or calf too much straight grain you can burn them out like this. I don't really know enough about it but that's my story. [/QUOTE]
