On Saturday calf 13 was always sleeping or resting when I checked on him. He seems
lethargic. When I got the cattle into the corral in order to move
another large bale to the feeder I had to carry calf 13 in. He didn't
get up when I touched him. He also didn't struggle too much when I
carried him. Normally the other calves at this stage would get up and move when I tried to touch them.
Later I watched for an hour if he would drink but both he and
his mom went to sleep. His mother does lay with
him when she is not eating at the feeder.
He does move as I find him
in different spots in and out of the corral throughout the day.
I'm going to try to spend more time
tomorrow to see if he drinks from his mother.
