Scour question

[tim1970]

This is a question related to my milk replacer question. When my calves were on the soy replacer, they started having runny brownish-white stools. Is this considered scours? The reason I ask this is because at no time the the 2 calves look sickly. Every time I went to check on them they were either up, or jumped up as soon as they saw me, and came running to try and get some food. I gave them an extra bottle of electrolytes one day, but I am not sure if they even needed it.

Thoughts????

Tom I associate scours with yellow runs.

What exactly is "runny" Like pudding, or like water?

Some would say a normal calf plop is runny say compared to a normal person or dog log.

Animals on a liquid diet are going to tend to have looser stools than on roughage.
