I need some help. Short version of the story. I found a dead calf this morning with what looked like pie topping coming from both nostrils. 30 minutes earlier the calf was up, the calf was nursing the night before. The calf was 5 weeks old. No other symptoms were shown. No blood in the "froth", no real discoloration. The only clue was one small bit of a yellow mucous inside the "froth". Any help is appreciated. This was going to be a show animal in my son's show string.
 
All I can do is empathize and suggest you call the vet . . . calf that young you could probably put it in your truck and take it there . . . froth and all.
