I've got a calve on the bottle that is 10 days old. Been feeding one bottle in the a.m. and one in the p.m. everyday. Last night when I went to feed her she looked pretty filled out already and wouldn't take her bottle, when she took her bottle yesterday morning she got to the end of it and let out a big sneeze and passed a bunch of gas at the same time. This morning she got about half a bottle down but wouldn't take any more. I think she's refusing to take the bottle due to the excess gas, anyone have any ideas of what I can do or give her to get rid of the gas. I'm not positive she has defecated lately and she may be constipated would this be a viable reason for not eating? If so what could I give her for this? It's been a long time since I've had to bottle a calf and any help would be appreciated.
