Calf breathing fast!

[Little Joe]

I have a 6 day old calf that seems to me that she's breathing faster than normal, but not really panting. She's sucking good and I see her running and playing. It was 19 degrees the night she was born and she didn't get up and suck so I gave her colostrum paste in the tube and a bottle of colostrum supplement and she got up and started sucking after that. Should I be concerned or just watch for other signs? She's not wheezing or doesn't have a runny nose. I notice it when she's laying around and resting.

I don't notice it when she's standing and walking around, and her nose is moist like it should be.

She sounds fine from your description, but if she seems off to you, check her temperature. Normal for a baby calf is 101.5 to 103.5.

If worried, check temp.

Do it at start of day or before being out in hot sun....which you do not seem to have atm.....
