Our helfers which are supposed to calf early next month seem to have the runs more than normal. They have been on green grass and I am sure that this is adding to it. Does anyone know if this is a problem that should be addressed. They eat good and seem healthy other than a bad case of the runs. If anyone else has had this problem please let me know.
Thanks,

It's not a problem and is pretty much normal. The moisture level is high and possibly the protein levels are high. The green grass squirts are common as, well the green grass squirts.
