[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 11827"] Ok, the reason she had foam coming from her nose which was tinged with green is that she had rumen contents there and was likely slightly bloated--positional entrapment. But that doesn't explain how she is still down now. Without knowing a thing about your operation, it's really difficult to figure anything out. The 4 in one--was that Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus and dextrose? If not, what was it??? She could be hypocalcemic (they are weak and tuck their head in,also the eyelids "snap" shut), but the age is wrong. She could be toxic--even a ruptured abomasum, plant poisonings...it could be lead. There are SO many different things this could be. In this area, I'd have to have rabies on the list. If you haven't done so, a thorough physical exam by a competant veterinarian should be done. Then that person will advise whether bloodwork is likely to help...if she's dead, and there are other animals, DEFINITELY get a post mortem exam done!! If you can clarify what you've given, maybe I can help a bit more! Good Luck! V [/QUOTE]
