[QUOTE="wshn41, post: 1842747, member: 38427"] He was born almost 2 weeks ago. Rancher said he never got up and nursed they gave colostrum and tried to bottle feed him for almost a week. He was weak and lethargic when they called me to give it a try. I have him eating, he’s got a strong suck. But seems to weave and bob when pushed onto his chest from laying flat. He will move all his legs but can’t seem to get further up then onto his chest. Am I wasting my time giving him a chance? I don’t mind spending the time on him just don’t want to prolong his suffering if he’s suffering. No scours , has urinated and pooped. I’ve stood him up and while he stumbles and weaves has maintained his feet with me balancing him but the next time I do it won’t help me much then back to trying next time. He did have involuntarily jerks and it’s gotten better [/QUOTE]
