I got a new calf yesterday. my husband got it for me and my girls for an early Christmas gift.
when he brought her home she was alert and all over the place. since it is so cold and she is the
only one I have I have her in the house for now. (she is a bottle baby. she still has the dry cord hanging)
he got her at a stock yard. I followed the guild lines of Kentucky farmers something. everything checked out.
when I feed her I gave her two pints of milk. and since she was sold and had the trip and the new home and
all the new stuff to get used to I knew she would be stressed so I gave her two pints of the stess juice
stuff( it is also for scours). now because I have slick floors I used my rubber yoga mat and put her in my
little bathroom so she wouldn't slide and get hurt. she slept through the night. in the morning she only ate
two pints of milk. I thought she would take more. she still was alert and wagged her tail. through out
today she just slept and layed there. I tried to feed her at 10 pm and she wasn't excited about the bottle and
only ate alittle over one pint. she didn't wag her tail. her ears are still alert and standing up like they are suppose
to. she has only pooped once and that was this morning. and it was normal. she has pee once. I don't want to
lose her I love all animal as if they are children and it would hurt my girls please help. :help:
