It sounds like some of the cases of salmonella I had a few years ago. Normally I'd expect to see lots of scouring with it but when it hit my cows they never did. They younger ones finally got ok, the older ones died. Simple as that. When they were necropsied the had several feet of necrotic large intestine. The particular strain was resistant to everything except Nuflor and Excel. When I treated with Excel they died quicker. Labs showed that there was so much infection that when the antibiotic killed the bacteria it shocked their system.
The first thing I'd do is boost the quality of antibiotic. I dont use penecillin for anything except me. For cows I try to keep Nuflor and sulfa pills.
I really hope it isnt salmonella. Evidentally geese brought it to me, and it got in the water. I fought it for years before I ended up depopulating for a while and putting everything on city water.
