[QUOTE="fourstates, post: 382215, member: 5918"] Wanted to let you all know that the calf seems to be doing real well. He has had no more diarrhea, no more blood and even smells better. He has been walking around his pen quite a lot today. I worked several times to try and bottle feeding, but I can only get a few onces at a time. He is getting stronger and heavier. I hated to finally tube him again, but he's gone to bed with 2 quarts of warm formula in his belly. He's only had 2 quarts of electrolytes this am and two quarts of milk replacer tonight. I don't think I was able to more than 6-8 ozs in him thru the bottle over the whole day. I have seen pelleted milk for foals, do they make something like this for calves? I will keep trying the bottle, but I am feeling wore out! BTW, we had our first heifer out of 13 bull calves, she's beautiful and healthy, and her momma knows her job. I won't even walk in the pasture with the same shoes I wear in the barn. [/QUOTE]
