I have a 3 month old calf that is holding its neck stretched out and now its head very slightly sideways. It has been dewormed with Cydectin and had its normal vaccines. They are on excellent minerals also. It was fine at birth but this has developed slowly and seems to be getting worse. A friend looked at it Sunday and said looked a little like bottlejaw does in sheep. But no swelling or lump underneath neck. No obvious swelling or lumps anywhere. It is sucking cow well and growing well. Almost looks like a blind calf when you see it walking at a distance. Any ideas. I will get picture tomorrow if I can. Calf is 1/2 simmy, 1/4 charolais, and 1/4 beefmaster. I can always fatten it and eat it later but if this keeps up head will be looking straight up before then.
