[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 700368, member: 5106"] You guys need to talk to your vet just what exactly electrolytes are used for. It is not just dehydration. It gets the calf's PH balance back in sync.. If your calf is week or unable to stand after an illnes that usually was acompanied by scouring you still need to give electrolyes.. NO it is not getting everything from the milk. There are vitamins and minerals that it's little body cannot or has not been able to absorb becasue of the illness, thus electrloytes are the only way to get them back to normal. [/QUOTE]
