[QUOTE="snsfarms, post: 431496, member: 6996"] Thanks for your reply Alice. We have been using alot of fly spray on all the babies this summer, some reason or the other the flies in our area are just terrible. We will get him bathed up again this afternoon, he hads baths but oh well he will have to deal with it. We don't have any scour halt {and he does not have the scours [i]yet[/i]} but we have Sustain III calf bolus, should we try this? He is in a shed that has the door (dutch so both) are open with a fan on him. I will once I get him rebathed, I will start misting him. Last night my husband gave him a shot of vitamin A D. We don't have (on hand) A D&E and B complex or the Bose. Guess if we are going to have these FFA babies then we need them. Once again Thank You for your reply. And yes this is stressful, lots of lost sleep. But we are hoping we can pull this guy through. He is a mix breed dairy bull. Our daughter has him as a FFA project for this year. :roll: And this guy is puzzling us all. I know with livestock you lose some,but this guy is almost three weeks old (will be Wednesday) and has been doing so well. He still has a really good appetite, drinks water from the bucket and his milk replacer from the bottle. Just not eating grain or hay :?: . Now our other little guy is doing fine, kinda a little piggy and follows us everywhere and will eat anything we have to eat for ourselves :lol: . The other guy is a mix breed as well but he is not all dairy like "Fred" is. [/quote] [/QUOTE]
