Hello all,
I've got a 4-5 week old calf that I've had since just after birth. We've made it through scours with a couple rounds of antibiotics and electrolytes. For the last week and a half she's been eating well (2 bottles a day) and chewing on hay and grain. She still seems frail, but very enthusiastic at feeding time. Starting this morning it's like every time she tries to nurse it goes down the wrong pipe. This afternoon some was coming back through her nose and she'd stop. After a couple minutes she runs back for more. took 3/4 of a bottle before she was done seemingly for good. Any suggestions?
