[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1694427, member: 25884"] I add yogurt to the milk replacer... 1 - 2 cups of yogurt in a 2 qt bottle... make sure it is live culture... the mixture needs to be drinkable. In fact there are a couple of local creameries around here that have a "drinkable yogurt" ... we used to call it "kefir" back in the "hippy days of the 70's-80's"... that can be fed in place of 1/4 to 1/2 the bottle if the calf gets scoury... think consistency of a smoothie...... never mixed beer for them so I am no help there. I mix my milk replacer in a small gal bucket to just make it easier to mix.... any extra can be refridgerated for the next feeding. And I am old school and like to feed the milk warm.... I know there are some studies that it is fed room temp or cold... [/QUOTE]
