[QUOTE="WoodBoy, post: 1390020, member: 21899"] After the cold front this weekend, i found a 2 month old heifer calf down this morning. She was laying on her side and moving her legs. All 4 legs have movement but she seems unable to have control of her head. She will not sit up cow fashion but rather just roll to her side. She does not blink but does move her eyes some. I got her inside a warm truck and tried to bottle feed her some milk replacer. She only took about half a pint with me squeezing it into her mouth. No sucking from her. She does not seem dehydrated. I gave her a shot of pen G and also a warm bath as i think she may have some hyperthermia. My rectal temp gauge only reads to 96 on the low side and she was below that. Momma cow was standing with her and is in good condition with a good bag. I have not contacted a vet. Any ideas or input? Thank you in advance. [/QUOTE]
