[QUOTE="MK, post: 84828, member: 1617"] That Holstien could be the one that introduced it. Not really sure. It is a naturally occuring organism and there are other possibilities....it can lay dormant in the soil for a year, maybe longer. How big of an operation does he have? What are his options as far as managemnt at this point. If they are all in one area and it is the area where this all started, he should be getting them out of that area. If he can keep the calves that are sick away form healthy ones that would be good too. Keep moving them as the manure starts to build up. As soon as a calf even looks like it is thinking about being sick, start on it with hydration therapy. It's a shame they are losing them. I wish I could remember the brand name of that absorption supplement.......maybe Deliver? The vet should be up on this. Also he could contact a vet supply business. Search the internet for cattle health supplies...or something like that. Good luck! MK [/QUOTE]
