I just had a heifer calf yesterday. She calved perfectly. The calf stood up in about two hours and was walking around in the woods. Checked on them this morning in the woods and the mom was standing a good bit away from her calf and it was lying down freezing. It got down in the twenties last night. The calve I guess just didn't eat nothing. I tried to save it with some calf starter and injected her with a couple of things the vet gave me to give her some energy. As soon as I put the tube down her throat and drained some calf starter down about five minutes later she quit breathing (What happened?). Anyway what do you think I should do with the mom? Will she be good enough to keep for another calf or not? It seemed that she gave up on this calf. But I guess it could have been me. Any advise.
