Nesi, in my experience when a older animal loses some ear is that there is an underlying problem usually they have a fever or something. A calf older than a month or two should have good enough circulation to keep its ears and tail end supplied with blood. When I see that here I give them a shot...

Pinkeye has been a real problem here this year in my herd and few of the neighbour herds it has been a dry summer and I blame it on the dusty windy conditions.

My vet looked the calf over she said that the throat was closed up that you could cut his air off with two fingers to the throat overall the calf looks good and still good condition but runs out of air quickly still sucking well. I treated him at the first sign as I had one 3yrs ago with the...
