[QUOTE="ClinchValley86, post: 1620336, member: 38595"] The calf I started this thread about, is in good shape it seems. Unfortunately, had a 3 day old calf die on me tonight. Found her this afternoon lying in the barn almost unresponsive. Watched her nurse day 1. Day 2, yesterday, she had warm wet mouth and nose. She was seen urinating. And had normal looking yellow poop. I assumed she was nursing. This evening I found her limp as a noodle with some blood yellow poo dried on her butt. Very cold nose and mouth. Brought her in and tried warming her up. Tubed 3 pints of electrolytes/vitamins/sugar stuff to rehydrate her. Within 3 hours she was dead. Really thought she was purking up after the tube. Started moving a bit. But mouth was still cold. Behind her was some bloody yellow poo. I've been reading as to what it could be. Based on what I'm reading it sounds to me like it likely could have been salmonella. Anyone ever dealt w salmonella? This calf was in a different pasture from the first and they don't share a fence. The other calf was in the elements and this calf was in a decently clean barn. Needless to say the barn doors are closed. Really has me bummed, and worried. And our weather is miserable. Wet and cool. [/QUOTE]
