[QUOTE="I luv herfrds, post: 345572, member: 5917"] preston39 It all started with a 5yo bred cow on 1-29 She was away from the herd and not eating , we roped her and tied her to the feed truck and dosed her with 50cc's La-200. She aborted on 2-5. Next cow came up to the corral with the same signs, did the same treatment on 2-2 she died that afternoon. Next cow found in pasture on 2-3 died same day. Lost another cow same day. These were 5yo's. All were bred. On 2-4 treated four head. Two are 4yos, one three yo, and 1 nine yo. Both 4yos aborted on 2-5, one 3 yo never sick aborted 2-13. The three yo is still bred. The 9 yo had a premie calf on 2-21, still alive luckily. One 6yo cow aborted on 2-6, never sick. Last night a cow that was never sick delivered a set of dead twins. 1 bull, 1 heifer. Other then the fact that they were not breathing nor had a heart beat they looked normal, except for their eyes. There was a large spot of white on the pupil. I got there about 3-5 minutes after they were born. She is 8yo. Other then the respritory signs of labored breathing, white to clear mucus discharge from the nose the ones that died had foam around their mouths and one had air bubbles in her tear duct area. The skin around her eyes was purple after death. A few of them showed no signs of illness before this happened. cowcrazy07 Yes we did think of that, that is why we had our hay tested. The vet thought it is nitrates. We are still waiting for blood and tissue samples sent in on the dead cow. The other two were frozen when we found them so no post could be done. I'll keep everybody posted on what we find out. [/QUOTE]
