Sorry. It's impossible to know, but I'd be curious as to how long your calf went without milk before you got him. Calves that are weaned too young can lose the ability to digest milk, but not yet have the ability to survive as a ruminant. That might have been what happened to yours. You were probably doomed before you started.
I agree when buying calves from those situations it's just a big gamble at best and many times the deck is stacked against you figuratively and literally too.
