[QUOTE="J Hoy, post: 1694688, member: 16398"] Dear Hereford2, You should check the bite of that calf. It appears to have an underbite. If so, its calcium metabolism was disrupted prior to birth and likely still is being disrupted, which can cause joint pain. The same electrolyte pill, Calc. Phos. 30X (or Calc. Phos. 6X, but 30X works better) stimulates the cells to uptake the calcium they need and the underdeveloped facial bones grow to normal and the joint pain apparently goes away because affected animals stop limping. Grazing animals that have birth defects like underbite sometimes have problems with the umbilicus. [/QUOTE]
