[QUOTE="mystery74, post: 360512, member: 4625"] I have just gotten myself through this ordeal, and here in indiana there is a vaccination for crypto. however, I bought a 2 day old calf from a farmer i was not familiar with and this little calf got scours really bad, after two weeks of trying to treat it on my own and the calf severly losing weight i called the vet, they immediately IV'd him and told me to feed him three times a day, take him off of milk for 2 days and give him oral antibiotics, 1 weeks later the calf was much worse and could not barely stand, although he would try, so i called another vet, explained to him what the previous vet had done, and requested a culture test on him to see why he was so sick, so they came out and the test showed positive for E.coli after 3 more weeks of 4 feedings a day and tons of medicine he is over it, My opinion is call a vet ask over the phone, if not have them come out and test him for other things before its to late.
