How does a calf act if he has eaten something foreign? I have a sick calf and think that he might have eaten something bad. I found him with hay hanging out of his mouth. I cleaned this out and thought he was fine. About a week later, he was unable to get up. He had a good appetite, but wasn't able to stand without assistance. After a day of helping him up, he finally started walking around. He seems very weak, but his eyes and nose look good. Any ideas what he might have or if this is how he would act if he act something foreign?
