[QUOTE="raykour, post: 1141686, member: 16801"] Well, the score is tied for now. The steer calf is over the hump. He eats eagerly 2 GALLONS per day (he has a lot of catching up to do I suppose) 2 heifer calves, I lost one today. Of the the 3 calves, she was the oldest and most "well-established" when this started. She has seemed to feel dumpy over the last several days and run a very mild fever, but she was still eating as she should. This morning she was close to comatose. I got her warmed up, got fluid into her, etc. but I couldn't get her to bounce back. The other heifer calves acts similar. She is just dumpy. She is not running a fever though, but she is not inclined to eat very well and the real clincher is she is too small to pass an esophagael feeder. Anyway, still fighting the fight with her. Syringe feeding her the rest of her feeding after she won't suck anymore and added B12 injections. Thankfully, my own version of whatever is ailing us has cleared up for me. [/QUOTE]
