Hello,
We have a Holstein calf that keeps making a weird sound when bottle feeding. It's hard to describe, it makes a loud gulping sound or weird sound in the throat, then has to stop drinking every 30 seconds or so, then starts drinking again, it almost sounds like the calf may be taking milk into its lungs. The calf wont drink more then one bottle and is noticeably thinner than should be. Felt throat for blockage and doesn't seem to have bloat. Fairly new to this. Any Idea's? Thanks.
