I would say that no a stunted animal wouldn't grow out of it. At least not completely, because they are usually stunted at a very young age where bones are developing and the growth plates are starting to close.

That depends on a lot of things - genetics, how badly they were stunted, when the problem was caught and rectified, how the problem was rectified, and the calf. Generally speaking, however, stunted calves will probably not do as well as they would have had the situation not occured. But, for every rule there is the exception. I'm not trying to be ambiguous here, but you didn't provide much information. By the way, what part of Wyoming do you live in?
