Bulent Elitok

The health conditions of adult calves have not been well studied, although morbidity and mortality of nenatal calves has been subjected to a large number of studies. The limited studies find out that the diarrhoea and respiratory diseases have been found to be the most common diseases in adult calves. The other important point is that overall diseases incidence has been reported to be lower in adults calves than in younger ones. The aim of this review is to provide information about most common causes of diarrhea in adult calves.
