His stool is starting to firm up. I'm going to keep him in the crate again tonight so I can tell for sure. I got some Manna Pro milk replacer tonight. I gave him his PM bottle with 6 oz water and 2 oz milk. He is acting much better. I kind of worried about him this afternoon. I spent 5 hours this morning building a fence and he followed me all over the pasture. I was worn out, so I am sure he was. He's walk up to my feet and just fall down, wouldn't take a bottle of water. I put him in the garage for the next two hours to let him nap and rest. When he was rested, he took a bottle of water just fine. He hasn't been getting much protein, so I'm sure it doesn't take much to wear him out. Unfortunately, alfalfa hay here costs $23 for 100lb bale. I've got winter grass that is about 8 inches long that he is nibbling at.

I forgot to mention that he has had no fever.
Try getting alfalfa pellets from the feed store. I feed Stock and Stable 14 which is a sweet feed -- my guys love it.
