We had one calf last spring that simply dropped dead at somewhere between 2-3 months old. He literally dropped dead like someone had shot him, except there was no blood anywhere. I don't know what the cause was, the calf was not posted, and there were no more incidents of whatever it was.

I have only seen traces of blood at the mouth and nose, as well as the red bleedout around the eyes on calves who died of injuries. Sounds like he might have gotten kicked in the head? No matter the reason, that kind of surprise drags down the day.

Tthanks for input,that's kinda what i was thinking,that it was from an injury. That makes some sense.
