[QUOTE="FCR, post: 1487789, member: 32762"] Thanks for the replies. The wood was most likely burned mesquite. We have a lot of burn piles out in the pastures and it definitely isn't toxic. I could see treated wood being a problem, but would likely take longer and make the calf sick first. I think it was just bad luck that it actually made it through the esophagus but hung up in the stomach. Also, because I was feeding hay and cubes, he probably was eating more than he would have been out in the pasture which added to the bloat. [/QUOTE]
