[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 676053, member: 4353"] Its not so much the quantity of the colostrum as the quality of the colostrum. First calvers hasn't been exposed to as many bugs in their short lifes as older cows hence they won't have all the antibodies in their colosutrum that older cows will have. Scours in older calves suckling their dams isn't nearly as bad news as it is in bottle calves in a barn. Use the sulfa bolusses you got, but do it a minimum of 4 consequtive days and continue to give the Probiotics while you're using the antibiotic, I am very sure that will cure your problem. A good dose of Valbazen to all the calves won't hurt either. [/QUOTE]
