Cow not eating

20 years ago

Hi. e have a jersey heifer that is bred and she has stopped eating for about 4 days now. She looks to be really close to her delivery time. DH has tried to lead her to the feed and he has even taken the feed bucket to her but she just is not eating. She doesn't look ill but she just stands around all the time or lays down. It's been very hot as it has everywhere else. Could it be the heat or is this normal for a cow about to give birth sometimes? His dad said they do this sometimes but I'm getting concerned. This going to be our first heifer to give birth and she's a good cow and I'd really hate to lose her. Thanks for any input and advice.
