[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 1226335, member: 852"] Colicky calf... scours, abomasal bloat, purplegut (clostridium perfringens/enterotoxemia), intussception, intestinal volvulus... first option he'll break with diarrhea tomorrow, second two he may or may not be alive tomorrow (penicillin and C&D antitoxin would be your best options here), last two he needs surgery or will be dead tomorrow or the next day. There might be a few more differentials but those are the most likely. Depending on what he's worth to you, I know it's Sunday but this'd be worthy of an emergency call. [/QUOTE]
