[QUOTE="Sd1030, post: 1467983, member: 23833"] Update: after working with the cow some (trying to milk her) the cow has come to some milk. Working with getting the calf strong enough to nurse as it has been pretty sick( pneumonia i think) but things are improving day by day. Hopefully things will be better in a few more days. Heres something ill ask to see if any have experienced this, in the early attempts of milking the mama, the only thing that would come out was a clearish gel like substance that had a orangish color to it. A good friend thats been fooling with cattle for 30 plus years said its the first time she has every seen that. We called and spoke to a vet and he says it sounds like a fescue issue to him. Says thats classic to what fescue can do in horses. Yesterday she had milk though and we tried to assist the calf in nursing her and also milked her once the calf give out.
