Calf with loose stool

[jode]

So this calf (approx 9-12 months) was just wormed in mid-November (by the PO and I don't know what they used) and she has been getting good and fat on the spring grass here, but her stool continues to be very loose and is actually pretty green. Is this a situation I should be worried about, or would a bit of probiotics help here? Could she already be so full of worms that she is having her bowels affected? I can see her having some parasites by now, but enough to cause health problems? It seems too soon. Anythoughts?

Not to worry....
Imagine that you ate nothing but spinach,all kind of greens and lots of salad.
You'd have the green splatters too!!!
That's just a sign your calf's guts are working properly.

Wouldn't hurt to worm,though...

OK - cool. Other than a smattering of nasty green puree of spinach around her hind end (and all over the pasture) she does seem to be in fantastic health and has really been putting on the pounds since things greened up. She is getting to where she is a bit funny looking because for some reason she isn't gaining height as fast as she gains girth. I'm starting to wonder if this brown swiss isn't a mini.:baby04:
