[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9559"] I have posted several messages over the past year concerning dying calves. I know dealing with bottle calves is hard anyway, since they do not have the immunities nursing calves have. However, The last two calves that have died & two that are presently sick have all had similar symptoms that are different that what I have experinced before. They go from being healthy and fine one day to being lethargic and sickly the next. The first sign is a wobbly back leg, which generally leads to them eventually not being able to stand up. They generally scour, but will still eat. They live about 1-2 days after they show the signs. About 1-3 hours before they die, they will lie on their side and kick their legs continuously and moan and wail. It is pitiful to watch this happen. The calves are all under two months old.I am under the belief this might be some type of pneumonia. Any suggestions?
