So. If anyone remembers me and Mater, his scours cleared up nicely and he is all weaned now and gaining weight like a pro. I even shared the trick of heavy whipping cream and yogurt with a friend who used it to save his little Jersey calf, so thank you to whoever shared that. I have no need...

Yep, I warm the milk. I mix it up between 110 degrees and 120 degrees, and don't give it to him until it's down to 101 to 105 degrees. Yeah, he's still playing some. Mostly when we let him out now he wants to try to root around in the grass. The yogurt really seems to be helping. Thanks!
