Everything going great with Daisy and her calves, both feeding well, adoptee managing to sneak a feed without me holding her, still putting him on 4 times a day to ensure he has fed well.
Daisy unfortunately has mastitis in one quarter. I am milking it out 4 times a day, she had anti b cream through the teat yesterday and this morning. Gave her a shot of pen and strep this morning but only managed to get 6ml in before she had had enough of all the faffing. Quarter is milking well, just yellow milk with a few lumps in, udder is not overly hot and she is very well in herself. Anything else i should be doing?
Adoptee calf arrived yesterday from a clean herd, very well and normal poo. Today he has very, very runny yellow poo! I am assuming he has gone from his mum, to powdered milk for 10 days and now onto very rich jersey milk, and this has all been a bit much for his tummy. He is very alert, bouncing around, sleeping well, feeding when necessary and also drinking some water. Anything I should be doing?
Many thanks.
