This is not normal and you should have a veterinarian (animal doctor) examine your calf. She may have brain damage from birth, or her mother was infected by a virus (BVD) which damaged her while she was developing. Your calf may also have a congenital heart defect where not enough oxygen is getting to her brain and makes her faint. Make sure the calf has no access to salt, as salt poisoning can also cause seizures.
