[QUOTE="snsfarms, post: 434264, member: 6996"] Thanks Alice. We would like to think that with everyones help here and what the vet came and done was everything that we could do for Fred. We really thought we would have lost Red and not Fred. Red was the one who looked worse of the two. We will make sure that from now on that the navels are cared for very carefully with all the calves on the farm. (we do with the foals but just never {and don't know why not} with the calves :oops: ) Lesson learnt the hard way and we will do what we can from now on to keep this from happening every again to the best of our ability. We are setting up a med chest and have gotten lots of great ideas on what to keep on hand, and we are thankful for the ideas that poeple have offered us. I will however call my vet in the morning and ask him [i]if[/i] there is any way that maybe the combination of meds given could have killed Fred. Not so sure that it was, I just feel that it was bad timing on our behave (not getting him cleaned and not having the needed meds on hand). But we will be better prepared for the next time around and we hope this will not happen again. [/QUOTE]
