[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 251637, member: 2308"] I've been meaning to post this for the last few days. It is part of an interesting article in an old vet book that I have. [u]Veterinary Guide for Farmers [/u]by G.W. Stamm printed in 1953. Milk Fever Symptoms Contrary to its name, fever is not one of the symptoms of the disease. Early symptoms usually begin between 12 hours and 4 days after calving. They are of two kinds. The animal may show signs of excitement, get a wild look in its eyes, swithch its tail, tremble, weaken and stagger. Or it may become depressed, refuse food and not want to move about. In either case, the first symptoms are followed shortly by collapse and loss of conciousness. The animal lies with its head turned to one side, the eyes are dull and expressionless, the muzzle dry and the temperature usually below normal. The most frequent complication of the disease is pnemonia. This is often brought about when the animal inhales portions of its cud while laying down. [/QUOTE]
