[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 1488588, member: 839"] I would not be overly concerned about it. Years ago, I raised bottle-babies, and occasionally had a few with the funky outer ear edges, small bumps and a few hairless spots. In time they healed on their own. Mine never did have large, fluid-filled bumps. I have also had a couple of calves get frostbite on their ear tips. They never got bumpy/lumpy. The tips of their ears lost the hair and the tips just sloughed/fell off, so that their ears were more rounded looking, like a teddy bear. They never needed medical intervention. [/QUOTE]
