[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 12209"] Try Nuflour or Micatil (sp), and I agree that if it is a virus it will just take time, but I would continue to treat with an antibiotic. Keep the calf hydrated warm and comfortable.... and I would have the vet come out to take a look and listen to the lungd. We raise baby calves and we have a vet on twice a week on routine now, works great... kat > Your vet can listen to the calf's > lungs with a stethoscope and > determine whether or not he still > has pneumonia.
