[QUOTE="bird dog, post: 1400584, member: 5381"] I would bet he is a chronic with lung damage. I have one also so don't feel alone. Mine is still on her mother but doesn't grow as well, move as well, or look as well as the other calves in the herd. Completely my fault. The calf was on a place with no facilities and it got sick and I hadn't been out there for a few days because of the mud and took another couple days to get it caught. By then the damage was done. The drugs took away the cough and runny nose but you can't fix the damage. I have had a couple in the past. They and this one are noted for hair that does not shed off, pot belly and are lethargic. When its hot they won't leave the shade tree and pant like a dog. He will continue to grow, just at a much slower pace than you would like. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
