[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 671259, member: 852"] Here he is this morning: [img]http://i339.photobucket.com/albums/n465/IdahoLabs/calf011.jpg[/img] randi -- it sounded like a lot to me too, but having seen how much fluid went into this calf before seeing a response, I'm now a little amazed by what it takes to rehydrate them. mnm -- he was too far gone initially; the digestive system won't absorb fluids at a certain level of dehydration. I've got a little bit of a vet bill for this guy, but not bad. I think maybe 10-15 bucks of supplies. I didn't take him to the vet clinic to have them treat him, I took him there so I could treat him while I was shadowing vets for the day. :P IMO paying $10-15 to learn what I learned today was well worth it.
