Hello,
I purchased two heifer calves a month ago from craiges list. One was skinny and looked over heated.The man said that he had to really run them to load them up.The calf was drooling clear saliva and had white mucus in nose. I knew I should'nt of agreed to purchase them but I felt that the calf had a better chance with me.He said that the calves were in a pin with a bunch of goats and they were both 3 months old.I cant say when they were pulled from the cows but the red one showed intrest to nurse from my mama cow and she that went to eating grass in pasture so far so good with that one.The black one that is acting sick never showed intrest at all in nursing.She is also eating grass in pasture but still drools clear saliva and isnt getting any better.I finally got her to let me rub her and I felt her navel and its swollen round and probably 3" long.Her eyes are gummy like and she kinda just stands alot.
