[QUOTE="regolith, post: 929461, member: 9267"] If you want to keep her, get a vet to look at her. It's not uncommon for calves to be born incomplete or blocked in the intestines/anus and usually the first sign of it (apart from not seeing any poop) is that the calf will suckle once and never willingly feed again, remaining bloated from that first feed. I can't imagine a calf like that ever drinking two pints in one go, from the ones I've seen, so maybe it's something else. Is she your first calf or have you raised others before? [/QUOTE]
