[QUOTE="Double R Ranch, post: 1846404, member: 411"] Momma is a milking machine. Up to 3 gallons last night. She's doing great. Fallen right back into it. The steer graft calf has been fighting scours (overeating I believe) but thanks to wonderful members here who helped with a previous scour graft calf last year we had everything on hand and tackled it quickly. He's doing great now. The heifer now has the same scours. Hitting it hard. Hopefully she will be better in the next few days. We have storms coming again so I am worried that will not help. It's been in the 80's for a bit now. Sure wish I knew why these dairy calves always seem to fight scours in the first few weeks of life. The dairy I fill in on says 10 days is about average for scours to set in on their bottle fed calves. Never really have these issues in beef calves so it's a bit frustrating to deal with this almost like clockwork. Even the beef cross graft later last season didn't have scours like this. Gotta be a dairy calf thing I guess. [/QUOTE]
