[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1396301, member: 24027"] I'm currently supplementing a calf that had a little blood in her stool and she would hunch her back, wasn't as thrifty/developing as well as this cows previous calves. Called the vet thinking it could be coccidiosis and he said she probably wasn't getting enough nutrition. Checked the cows milk & sure enough she has mastitis (cow is doing better after treatment, calf is doing GREAT). Seeing as how you just bought this calf, I'm assuming it had a rough start, possibly little or no colostrum but too late to remedy that. I started my calf on electrolytes then mixed electrolytes with replacer and now just replacer. No more blood, poo is normal. [/QUOTE]
