[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 10386"] Talk to your vet,sounds like you have a bad bug, I would try Micotil. We delt with something similar in June, were these calves exposed in any way to a sale barn or an animal that had been through a sale barn, lots of bad bugs at those places, and stress will reduce the imune responce to fighting them. I would give another dose of Banamine to help with any potential pain, also give fluids via an esophageal feeder, if you have not used one have your vet show you the proper technique, and get some "One Day Responce" " Bounce Back" or any other vet reccomended suppliment that can hydrate & provide energy. I am not sure why, but we used Nuflor, and found no responce, then Mycotil was used on another group with the same bug an had great responce, our calf died, the other group became well with good appetite and normal feces. Must act quick or they die from lack of nutrition, and toxemia. Wish I knew what exactly it was, but we figured out it was a resistant strain of something that hits young calves HARD and if you are not on the ball they die.
