[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1737450, member: 38038"] I had a cow lose a calf and bought a Holstein calf to put on the cow. a few days later, calf was not looking good so I treated with electrolytes and probable other stuff. looked worse that night so had the vet come up to treat. he gave it a few shots, fluids, and a shot for me to give it in the morning. the next morning, calf was on its side, couldn't hold its head up, and barely breathing. I gave it the shot anyway. drove the cow back out in the pasture right next to the barnyard where the calf was in the barn. I left for work. returned expecting the calf to be dead. to my surprise, the calf was outside running along the fence with the cow pacing back and forth trying to get reunited with the calf. I could not believe it. calf grew fine with no after effects of being sick. hope you have a pleasant surprise also. good luck [/QUOTE]
