[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 207768, member: 9"] Sorry to hear about your calf loss! How old was the calf? (Usual Weaning age is between 6-7 months). No offense, but sounds like your Vet barely made it thru medical school... I would think a Vet could recommend something a little more "medical" that giving her an enema with garden hose... I've never had a constipated animal; however, I would think there were some cattle medications that would address this quickly. A "Fleets Enema"??? Or...something more bovine specific? Possible intestinal impaction due to excessive worms? Ingestion of some foreign material leading to impaction? [/QUOTE]
