[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 459887, member: 5106"] Personally I would throw everything at him for now.The swollen joints could be septicemia, Not good......... Do you know if he received colostrum? Start him out on 3-4 pints of 20-20-20 milk replacer twice a day. I would skip the hay for now and get an 18% calf starter ration with decox give him as much as he wants for now he will not over eat. Also I would give him 3cc's IM nuflor and again in 48hrs.Probios are a must. Also a sulfa bolus for the scours. Vitamin b12 shot and watch so he does not become dehydrated. Go see your Vet first thing after the holiday and tell him/her all that you have given and ask for more suggestions. Good luck I hope he does well for you. [/QUOTE]
