[QUOTE="regolith, post: 860317, member: 9267"] I saw a four year old with it once, back in 2000 I think. Was going to add that sometimes extra stress can trigger it in late lactation, so I guess the same is true when it hits younger cows? The weirdest I saw was in the dry herd in spring 2009. Found a cow down, not close to calving, treated her for milk fever and up she got. Kept an eye on her for a few days. A week later she still hadn't calved. Ten days later she still hadn't. She calved a couple of days after that - I don't think she had any trouble with MF at calving. [/QUOTE]
