[QUOTE="Scotty, post: 120575, member: 78"] The second one just got sick over night, I went out this morning and he looked like he was dead, very bloated looking. I went up to him to double check and he was still alive, but has huge gas-like bubbles protruding from his hind legs, hips, and stomach areas. Ive never seen a calf this bad before. I was talking with a friend and he questions black-leg. Dont know much about black-leg but has the symptoms he was talking about. Not sure what to do right about now, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. This one got me thinking. I think your friend was right. The signs of blk leg are lameness and swelling in the limbs. Temps as high as 106, swollen area painfull to touch, later swelling is cold and not painfull. When palpated area has the perception of air. From begining to end 12- 36 hours to death.
