[QUOTE="MK, post: 90369, member: 1617"] Definately a change in feeding. Seems like alot of milk. Whatever ails him may be "feeding" on the nutrition he is getting! Raising dairy calves we followed the same feeding schedule as Farmhand. You would be surprised at how them babies would drink themselves to death if given the opportunity. I would cut back on the milk, add electros to the bottle of water he gets, keep him hydrated and give him some sulfa. I am not a believer in sulfa for any scours, but with blood it should be looked at. Keeping him hydrated will do more to save his life (if it can be saved) than anything. Please keep us posted as we all learn as we follow along. Give the little fella a good luck rub from me. You sound like your as big a sucker for the underdog as I am. MK [/QUOTE]
