    Have a calf about a year and a half old. Has started grinding teeth,has blood in nostril and doesn't seem to know where he is. I.e is like he just got out of shed even though out all summer. Is a bit wild now but not normally. Vet said it's something he got "in the air" is a bit vague to me. Any one got any idea?

    Could be meningitis, was vet out with it?

    Vet was out. I wasn't there. My father was. My father doesn't know what he said it was. He did tell him it was something that was in the air that gave it to him so I'm assuming it's something viral.

    I'd ring the vet if I were you. We're only guessing here

    Vet is coming out again tomorrow morning. Gave him an injection today don't know what it was. Hopefully get more info tomorrow. It's a strange one. I'm guessing meningitis or sunstroke

    Can the animal see or is it blind?

    He seems a lot brighter in himself. Starting to pick at grass today. Not really hungry though. Got more injections from vet.

    Would it be ccn I've had a few calves with it down through the years. Vitamin B12 injection will cure it.
