I am sorry sometimes it just happens so fast. You did your best.

I came close to loosing one of my bottle babies. I fed him the night before and he was fine, the next morning I found him shivering and refusing to drink. I gave him a shot of antibiotics and put a foal blanket on him. By evening I got him to drink part of a bottle. The kids (human) also got sick at the same time so I wonder.....

I'm so sorry! You tried so hard to.
