[QUOTE="GMN, post: 589501, member: 2382"] Ya know I got to thinking about past calves I have had with down problems, and I remember for a bit we had 1-3 that had this issue, just down, and the Vet said it was a defiency of Vitamin B, he did come out and I did give the calves mega doses of Vit B, but they did not make it. I thought if I had another, I would do the Vit B right away, but I never have had it since those 3. I thought it could be related to that batch we switched to raising on rock, and for some reason, I have no idea how, but I thought it could be related. We don't use rock anymore and have had no further problems with calves being down. Are his joints swelled up? That could be something totally different. The neighbor had a calf that had joint ill, not sure what he did with it, but it wasn't down though, able to stand, just looked horrible. I would say the outlook for your calf is grim. GMN [/QUOTE]
