[QUOTE="Rafter S, post: 1330804, member: 21194"] I'm sorry you haven't gotten any responses to your question. I saw it this morning, but didn't reply because I didn't have an answer. I still don't, but I'll give some thoughts. They probably aren't worth any more than what they're costing you. My initial thought was that it probably wasn't caused by the difficult birth since the calf could walk the first day. Then I got to thinking that maybe there was an injury at birth, and swelling put pressure on the spinal cord, causing the paralysis. I don't know if that's possible, but it's all I can think of, and if that was the case I'd think you'd be seeing some improvement after a week. Have you talked to a vet about it? [/QUOTE]
