[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1055239, member: 9267"] Dega moo: infectious scours can knock them over in as little as twelve hours. There's been years I've had to stop using the sheds and raise all the heifer replacements outside for that reason. Penkert4: several of the conditions Lucky lists cannot be treated with antibiotics. You would need to first identify the problem and research how best to deal with it. The symptom you're seeing now is scours so focus on keeping the sick calves hydrated (electrolyte therapy). "Barrier nursing" if I've got the term right is when you wash up, change clothes, wash or change the feeding equipment between visiting the sick calves and your healthy ones. Because truthfully prevention is better than cure. [/QUOTE]
