Steve,
Although I'm an old man, I've only been raising cattle / calves for 15 years. During those 15 years, I've lost at least one cow or calf every year. It kills me to lose one, but it still happens.
The Ellington Agriculture Center is located in Nashville, TN. When I lose an animal, I usually take the dead animal to Ellington for a necropsy. I always want to insure that there isn't anything that I could have done to prevent the animal's death. So far, they've never found any contagious or preventable causes for the deaths.
If you have something nearby like Ellington, you might want to have a necropsy done to get a better idea as to what caused the calf's death.
Don't quit. Don't slow down. You are obviously a very conscientious farmer.
