[QUOTE="Headless chicken, post: 8456962, member: 2582"] Try some foston. don’t waste your time getting out of bed every 3 hours. If she’s that bad she needs checking like that she needs to be PTS. give her a couple of bottles of calcium if you think she has milk fever. If we have anything down now they get two as standard and have seen much better recovery. from the picture she looks like she’s on her side, maybe just liking the calf? If she’s not sitting on her brisket PTS. Again from the picture her condtion looks poor enough? Maybe just the pic but if so give her some glycol because ketosis can play hell with them. but above all else don’t put her needs before yours or the rest of the herds. I’ve Dam near killed my self rolling lifting and pissing around with cows that are down. You need to show compassion but sometimes that means making the decision and getting her put down sooner rather than later. [/QUOTE]
