[QUOTE="shadyhollownj, post: 734543, member: 9320"] UPDATE Ok the calf is taking a bottle fine now is is definetly more lively. She is walking and actually jumping over the wall we made to keep her in a corner of the mudroom. The medicated feed is actually taking care of the blood in the urine its almost gone. The vet said the the med replacer will probably clear it up since it may have been from a bladder or urinary infection from birth. I was thinking that I could probably put her back with the mom but if the going is good now Im not gonna chance losing the calf. Since she never got any antibodies from her moms real colostrum its probably better she is on a medicated replacer at least thats my opinion. The heifer is a nut anyway and doesnt have good udders so she is outta here thursday. She was half sim and half hereford. We have another calmer heifer from my neighbor so hopefully she works out better. Thanks for the help guys and girls. As always this sight is worth its weight in vet bills. [/QUOTE]
