Signs that you can tell that a cow is healthy - a great indicator is by seeing if she’s chewing her cud. Cows that are healthy and are feeling good will chew their cud and this helps them regurgitate that food and digest it. Also, cows that are licking their nose and swishing their tail is a good sign that that cow is content and she’s happy.
