[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 144053, member: 852"] momanto - you didn't say how much grain those calves were used to getting. And how big they are. 50lbs of grain divided by 5 calves is *only* 10 pounds per head. How are the calves acting now? Vicky - while you're around; are you thinking of something like acidosis? or what other problems might you run into? My neighbor lost an 800lb heifer last fall after she got into the grain bin (barley) and tanked up until she was too sick to move. Little too late when he found her. Tried drenching with Kao-Pec and mineral oil but it didn't work...again, probably too late at that point. For future reference, what would you suggest for treating a cow/calf that got into the grain like that? [/QUOTE]
