[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 209246, member: 968"] I realize you said the vet gave the calf a VITAMIN shot - but that was PROBABLY Vit. A&D - not SELENIUM. It's worth asking the vet if he gave BoSe or MuSe. And, not to knock your vet, but not all vets are aware of SE dificiencies. I would give the calf 4cc/100# of BoSe (2 SQ & 2 IM). At this point, it will take a few days for it to help. When I had a calf that wouldn't suck (all my calves get SE at birth) than I would hit them again next day with 1-2 cc SQ. [/QUOTE]
