[QUOTE="pdoramus, post: 117871, member: 2237"] I think the antibiotics are smz's not smx's, but they like nuflor are perscription so call you vet. I buy day old calves from the sale too and have had good luck. The first feeding we give as soon as they get home is a resorb electrolyte. Then two hours later we give their first milk replacer. I haven't given the milk replacers with colostrum in them yet because I didn't see the need, but you may consider it for the first 3 or 4 days. They are definitely more spendy though. Reminder to give electrolytes at least 2 hours before or after the milk replacer so the milk doesn't curdle. Goodluck and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
