Calf problem

[TomW]

We have a small cross calf that has just developed a rash or something on its nose and face. The rash is grey and is slightly raised - any ideas?

My wife already called the vet so I will let you know tommorrow

Could be warts.

The gray and slightly raised is what made me think of ringworm. When I think rash I think of a general area. Warts to me are more of a spot here and a spot there. But I've sure been wrong before, and will be again

These are about the size of a dime - I suppose it could be early ringworm? Pretty large for warts this early?
We will see

Size of a dime? To me, it sounds like ringworm, also. I'll be interested in the vet's diagnosis. We've got a couple with what I think is ringworm...and it's about the size of a dime.

Sounds like the worm to me....hit it with some Tinactin for a few days. Will go away on it's own over time. DMc

And for those of you who suggested ringworm - correct!
I had never seen it in such an early stage before - looked very different.
Thanks to all for the input
