[QUOTE="chippie, post: 1011425, member: 5644"] What brand of milk replacer are you feeding him? Check the ingredients and make sure that it doesn't have soy in it. Ditto on getting a stool sample checked and maybe even take the calf to the vet. If he has access to fresh water, he will drink it on his own. Stick to two bottles twice daily of a good quality milk replacer. Personally, I do not use the medicated. I would rather medicate when needed, not all of the time. You might want to give him some Probios paste also. I have a little fresh hay available for our bottle calves when they are almost a month old. They don't eat much, but sometimes will nibble on a stem or two. They always have water available in a sheep trough. Good luck with him. [/QUOTE]
