Greetings List Friends;
This is a link to an article by Dave Sparks D.V.M., Oklahoma State
University Area Extension Food-Animal Quality and Health Specialist. I
found it from a posting on the AnimalNet clipping service, now out of
Kansas State University.
Cow calf: Understanding neonatal calf diarrhea
http://www.catt
lenetwork.com/content.asp?contentid=113390
Dr Sparks lists the major organisms which cause neonatal calf diarrhea:
Rota virus, Corona virus, Cryptosporidium parvum, E. coli (K99
enterotoxigenic form), or Salmonella and then discusses the effects of
each of the agents, when treatment is required and the various
management and treatment options available.
