[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1466606, member: 25884"] Well, lesson learned. I would not jump into any type of scour medication until you see how she reacts. The thing that you need more than anything is to get her fed some FOOD, ie MILK. I would be more inclined to get some PRO-BIOS gel, it comes in a tube and you give her some which will help get her gut bacteria re-established. It has lacto-bacillus and other types and is used to help re-populate the good bacteria in the gut when using anti-biotics. Or sometimes you can buy it in bolus (pill) form. Just get her on the MILK REPLACER in SMALL doses for the next day or two. It will have a label that tells how much to feed and how much to mix. Feed her HALF of the recommended amount at each feeding; but feed her twice as often so she can get adjusted to it. Like giving a human baby 4 oz per bottle feeding, and feeding every 2 hours; instead of 8 ounces every 4 hours because it is spitting up. [/QUOTE]
