Another response:
About the only thing I could add to that excellent post you sent her
Gary, is it sounds like it could be a selenium deficiency because of
those back legs.....Bo-se is what she needs to give him...I would never
give a newborn LA200....I would check his temp., first...that is the
most impt. thing in finding what is wrong.... If over 103.5, I would
start him on Nuflor..5ccs per 100 lbs. ...also banamine ( 1cc per 100 ls
)....I would suspect pneumonia....
If its a high fever, the banamine will bring it down quickly.....fever
will kill quicker than anything else.
I just read your post Robin, where you said 3ccs to Mom of Bo-se or
Mu-se a month before she kids..... Mu-se is MUCH stronger than Bo-se, so
you would not give the same amts.......You would only give a fraction of
Mu-se complared to the Bo-se.....
