Farmer Bids on 5-Legged Calf When No One Else Would

A calf was born with a little something extra: a fifth leg. Elsie was just a week old when she was put up for auction, but because of her extra appendage, bidding wasn’t going very well. Matt Alexander of Louisiana feared that she might not survive if she wasn’t properly cared for. So he decided to scoop her up for a bargain. He also purchased Elsie’s mother so she could continue to feed her calf. ’s Mara Montalbano has more.
