[QUOTE="Paul E, post: 5215048, member: 37516"] Nothing to do with length of neck, so sorry [USER=3051]@Northeastfarmer[/USER] . (but it is more common in short necked types) I forget exactly what it is, something to do with muscles restricting the Larynx IIRC. Treatment is like muleman says, a steroid, but my personal view is that I would doubt it is a growth/ abcess. We have had them on occasions, in calves 6 -12 weeks old when they're thriving, just ensure that it[U] is[/U] the throat, and the lungs are clear. Had to do one twice once, but she's about 14 years old now and always has a good calf. It's something they grow out of. (unless yours is something different!) [/QUOTE]
