I now have a 9 day old baby cow who has been fine until this morning, he seems so lame, doesnt want to get up?

Question

He normally would get up walk wag tail everything this mornings feeding he almost didnt want to get up, ate his whole bottle as normal, but seems so weak in the legs, no fever, no loose stool, what do you think any suggestions?

Answer 1

has your calf had ANY other difficulty walking or standing or anything like that if so he might have a selenium deficience 2 calves i've had have had that so it's not that uncommon but you can go to a vet and get a shot for him
