I am looking for some help. I have a two week old Angus (also his name(Angus)) bottle calf that has scours. I have tried everything I can think of or have read, I am now looking for anything else that I may have missed or should try. So far I have:
1. Stopped milk replacer for 24 hours
2. Begun electrolytes fed for 24 hours
3. Treated with Duramycin 72-200 3 MG
4. Treated with Probiotics once (second tonight) 10 MG
5. Treated with Kaolin Pectin
6. Fed 1/4 milk replacement 3/4 electrolytes
That is where I am at now, still has scours that is orange (that is the closest) in color. He is a taking everything we feed him with some struggle but still has intake. I am looking for anything that may help that someone with more knowledge may have. We did have a cold snap this weekend with rain, I don't know if that had any affect but it didn't help I'm sure. Sense then they have remained in a heated stall protected from everything.
