Calf scours

[Slamace]

We have a 2 1/2 week old calf, Gerald. The first few days he started having the yellowish/tan diarrhea along with pneumonia. We got the pneumonia cleared and hes back to eating great, drinking plenty of water and active. The diarrhea hasn’t stopped. We’ve been giving him the scours tablets but nothing has helped. What else can I do? I did add electrolytes to his water also. We’ve been keeping everything clean including him.

What breed and how big? Did he have colostrum as a baby calf? How much are you feeding him?
BIG QUESTION,,, What kind of milk replacer are you feeding? If there is any soy in it then that is probably half or more of your problem. It needs to be ALL MILK milk replacer.... usually a 20 % protein.... like 20/20; protein /fat.
Any blood in the scours? Any close proximity to chickens?

What are the "scours tablets?" Antibiotics in them?
Sorry, but need more info before even attempting to make suggestions.
