[QUOTE="GMN, post: 271570, member: 2382"] Yesterday morning I went out for chores, fed a group of holstein heifer calves, one was missing, so I went in, and here it was in the shelter, convulsing, its limbs were frozen like and twitching, and its breathing irregular. I thought what the hay? The night before it was running around, fine and dandy.I thought it might be bloating, so I gave her some bloat medicine, didn't seem to help. When I went to see if I could get her up, she seemed to want to stand, but couldn't, and when she went down again, she would twitch, and thrash around. She died soon thereafter. Anyways this morning out in the barn, there was a small copperhead snake, and lately I have seen more than usual numbers of copperheads around, I'm wondering if she could have gotten bitten by a poisonous snake? What do you all think? Gail [/QUOTE]
