[QUOTE="skyhightree1, post: 1212795, member: 13268"] CC, I honestly don't know about switching if they are getting used to it but I do know if you plan on continuing if it were me I would switch to milk based replacer. My fear would be just as a dog gets used to its brand of food and you buy a different brand it upsets their stomach sometimes and they have to adjust to it. The calves have already had scour issues so not sure id be quick to switch so quickly. However, again this is just me and what I would do I would have discontinued using replacer while they were scouring for 3-4 days or until I felt I had corrected the problem and change over to milk based and ease them onto that. I figure 3-4 days of electrolytes they would be pretty hydrated and give it a whirl. I am not an expert by far. [/QUOTE]
