Hello,

I think you are pointing towards baby giraffe's syndrome. In this disease legs become sore due to accumulation of lactic acid. Tell her to move around and do squats. Drink plenty of water to keep herself hydrated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
