[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 477352, member: 539"] When did you give the Baytril? Can I ask why you gave Baytril and penicillin together? I'm asking because usually Baytril is given first and if the calf doesn't respond, then penicillin is given - assuming you have opted for the one-dose Baytril program. If you did not choose that option, then you can give another dose of Baytril, just be sure to not over-dose the calf or you run the risk of destroying his joint cartilage. Sounds to me like your calf is in the process of developing pneumonia, he just has not developed all the symptoms yet. Baytril will usually head it off at the pass(and good for you for treating so quickly), but occasionally it doesn't. Flunexamine(sp?) or Banamine will reduce fever, make him feel better, and help to get him to eating again. [/QUOTE]
