[QUOTE="pickinwildflowers, post: 1330429, member: 21020"] Hi! Calves often lose hair in response to stress on their little bodies, particularly if they have been sick with a high fever. If there is already new hair growth underneath, and if your calf is otherwise alert and healthy then the worst is already over. The old hair may continue to fall out for a few days but only to make way for the new coat. The same thing happened to my own orphaned, bottle-fed calf but she is fat and happy now!
