[QUOTE="ledoux79, post: 826477, member: 16515"] I have a yearly bull that is not feeling well. I had the vet out and he run a tube down his throat and put something in his belly, about 2 gallons of it. It was not mineral oil, it was a little thinner than yogurt and oatmeal in color. The bull had a 102 temp and he also gave him banamine. I gave banamine yesterday and today. The bull has drank 1 gallon of water in 2 days and only poops a 1/2 cup at a time. The manure was originally yellow and pastey - yesterday it was tan and a little thinner and tonight it has a redish brown look with a seperate white dough portion of the manure. He is not eating at all. Prior to this he was eating long hay, prairie grass and whole kernel corn, 3 pounds a day. What do you think? I called the vet yesterday and today and he tells me that banamine is the only thing we can do for him. He is not sure if the bull has an impaction but does not feel that he has a twisted gut because he is not thrashing. [/QUOTE]
