[QUOTE="texanstraders, post: 691078, member: 8572"] Well, we're still fighting fever. I have a vet house call scheduled for tommorow. I am going to see if we can change up the antibiotics to a180. The bull calf was at 106 at noon when I gave him the banamine. I'm afraid he may be a lost cause. He's still eating and getting around ok, just the darn fever is really high.He actually ate a few bites of some early weaner I bought today. Its been brutally hot, but I have had the misters and fans going in the barn where he is. I am wondering if I should seperate him from the other sick calf at this point or leave them together ? The heifer still was running a 103 fever, but she has much more spring to her... If I have to, will a .38 pistol behind the ear be ok. I don't have a .22 rifle. I guess I'm just trying to figure out what the threshold is on this situation. If he was down and not eating, I can see that. I'm hoping the vet can guide me there too. Thanks for listening and the advice. I have never lost one like this. I feel like I take good care of the animals and feel responsible that I didn't get on top of this sooner. [/QUOTE]
