He is a cutie! If everyone is happy and healthy, that is always good too!

Make sure his temp is at least at 100 or better yet 101 before putting anything more into him. It is critical for rumen function that his temp is normal. I would make him a bottle baby too.

 

[ksalvagno]

That isn't good. Just keep working on getting his temp up.

 

[ksalvagno]

This is going to be a rough go. At this point you need to get that temp up. No food until then.

 

[ksalvagno]

This is good. Get him up to 101 before giving anything. Just give him an ounce and a half or so. Small feedings. If you still have colostrum, I would give him that just because there is a lot of good things in it for energy. He will no longer get any antibody protection but since he nursed from mom, he should be ok there. But the colostrum has a lot of extra stuff in it that is really good for them beyond just the antibodies.

I'm so sorry you lost him. We have all learned some lessons the hard way.
