Have a heifer (4-5 months old) that was looking pretty bad last week so I used the pour on wormer. I left town the next day and sure as ever she went down. Wife has been trying everything while I was gone and I continued when I returned.
We gave her LA 200 for first couple of days, cal/mag for three days and probios for three days. Got to the vet on Monday and she gave an injection of Nuflor. We have been tubing her and giving her milk re-placer (she is about 300 pounds and probably was not weened.) She has been drinking some water and eating a bit of hay, some pulled green grass and some dry feed but she still will not get up. If she lays out flat we have to help her up but then she looks alert. Used the hip lift a couple of times but just doesn't try to move the frond end much. We got her under the barn in a pen to keep her out of the upcoming weather (maybe it was to keep US out of the weather.) Today I even gave her a qt of butter milk (figure I can't do much wrong anyway.) At wits end. Looking for any suggestions
