[QUOTE="A6gal, post: 629462, member: 2034"] I have one that's been down going on two weeks. The bull apparently injured her while breeding her back. The vet came out and looked her over on day two and felt sure she'd be getting up. Couldn't find any visible problems and thinks it's a pinched nerve or similar problem. He said he'd seen them down as long as three weeks and then get up like nothing happened. He gave her an IV of vitamins for strength and started her on a downed cow cocktail injection 20 cc's and I continued that each day for three more days. She tries to get up, just hasn't done it yet. She is alert and doesn't act sick. I carry feed, hay and water to her twice a day and she eats and drinks well. I penned her two month old calf and am feeding it calf starter and hay. It is doing well. [/QUOTE]
