A Blonde d'Aquitaine heifer calf, approximately 7 days old, born via natural parturition, received colostrum within the first hours of life. The animal, which has had watery diarrhea for several days, remains in sternal recumbency, is apathetic, has cold extremities, an absent suckle reflex, and is hypothermic (36.8 °C). Auscultation of the heart and lungs and examination of the navel and joints show no abnormalities.
