[QUOTE="cleland, post: 344958, member: 1759"] Had a calf yesterday morning that weighed 90# and still today cant get up. I didnt pull the calf, just found him alive in the pasture with cw beiside him, when I checked yesterday am. I fed 2 pints of colosterum yesterday, and took the calf to the vet, where they gave him a few shots. The vet said probably just a heavy calf, hard birth is the calf is sore. I brought himback home and put him in the barn. He ate almost 2 pints again this am. When I lift him to try to make him stand, he acts as though he cant use his legs, backs more than fronts. HIs back feet are knuckeled over. Any ideas what this could be, or what else I can do to help this calf. He has the potential to be an excelent calf, from one of my better cows, and sired by kings ransom. Thanks Jeff [/QUOTE]
