[QUOTE="Medic24, post: 67960, member: 1101"] Gees, hard to do a diagnosis with out seeing the calf, but it may well be an illness just as sure as it could be a digested problem... I would not think if he ate something foreign it would make him weak so many days later,,, if it was poison it should have been sooner, but it sounds like a progression of illness.......But I am NOT a vet......maybe you should call one to see, as there are so many things causing this..... I do sometimes have calves or cattle suffer from what our vet calls a silent pnuemonia, there is no outward or apparent illness, no coughing or heavy breathing, just weakness that gets worse in time. All the time the lungs are filling with fluids and lesions.......my vote is call a vet. When something bad is eaten, usually , but not always, obvious signs would be heavy salivation,clumsyness, bloating, manure changes, excessive belching, or the animal stands in a position to get relief in the digestive tract.
