[QUOTE="puzzled in oregon, post: 1651920, member: 40255"] A couple years ago one of my beef cows lost her calf, so I went to a local/organic dairy and purchased a holstein/angus calf (day or two old). These calves are not allowed to ever nurse the cow. The calf was sick and severely scoured when I got him and he got worse. He had little interest in surviving until my beef cow saw him and started talking to him. That gave him an interest in life, but didn't cure the scours. I tried several electrolytes with no positive results. Then I found a product made by Sav-A-Calf. It is an electrolyte/probiotic mix safe for all animals. It is what put a stop to the scours. I will give that cow a lot of credit, she never batted an eye when I put the calf in the corral with her, and the calf went straight to nursing. Anyway I won't bore you with that story. I have also used this product for one of my beef cows that scoured and was rapidly loosing weight. For the cow I would mix a packet in a gallon of warm water.and the the cow would drink it right out of the bucket. she liked it and it straightened her out [ATTACH type="full"]1018[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
