[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 11982"] Nursing calves are the most susceptable to scours. What I think you saw was just a health milk poop. The fist poop from a calf is call muconium (SP) and is generally blackish/green. It is what is inside the calf durring development in the whomb. This is pushed out by gut activity once the calf nurses from the cow, the Second or third poop will be a dark orange this is the colostrum, follewed by a lighter sometimes white poop after the calf has nursed out all of the colostrum. Whatch to see that the calf is bright and alert, and nursing with urination and more poop production, if not you may need to seek treatment, call a vet as you are a newby.
