[QUOTE="AM Ranches, post: 1624419, member: 39941"] Hi there, I have a one week old bull calf, who was a single, and began taking the bottle fine. The other night, he didn’t want to eat and refused even after “forcing” some MR down his throat. He began this sort of grunt upon respiration the next morning and still wouldn’t feed. Gave him a dose, 3cc of Excede, and 20cc of Anitoxin. He has had colostrum added to his MR and drank of the mother after birth is what i was told. We have also given him electrolytes as he appears dehydrated. The last day this has been through a tube. The vet prescribed some selenium and a 1cc dose of bamamine and believes he has an ulcer. No bloating, has regular bowel movements. Is not scour looking. He is not kicking at his sides. He is grunting and wont take a bottle. [/QUOTE]
