[QUOTE="Beefy, post: 390924, member: 57"] thats what i think too- that the calf wasnt being taken care of and it took that long to starve to death. the convulsions could have been from heat [b]stress[/b] or encephalitis/meningitis (likely from not getting any colostrum), etc.. if you got milk in his lungs he would have gotten pnumonia and died. you would probably hear some raspy breathing. mom may have not been doing her job, or had a bad bag in which case it wouldnt matter if she tried or not, or calf may have not been doing his job. i lost a calf this week too. dont like having them this time of year.
