new bottle calf-scours?

[longhorngal]

I'm going on my 3rd day with this calf and he's about 6 days old. Yesterday he had 1 qt of goat's milk and then 2 more feedings of 1 qt of Ultra 24. I was going to keep him on the goat milk but she stepped in the bucket when I was milking her so I didn't figure he needed that.
This morning I fed him 1 qt of the 24 and noticied he had very liquid, smelly poop. His poop yesterday was yellow and firm-this is totally different.
His temp is 102.8 and no skin tenting. Seems to feel ok, maybe a little quieter than yesterday but he may be more used to me now too.
What should I do for him?
BTW he did come from a dairy close to me, not an auction, and he looked great and was very lively when I got him on Friday.

Maybe you gave him one too many feedings of that 24 stuff. I'm no expert on bottle calves, but that's what I would assume is giving your calf the scours.

What is this Ultra 24 you talk of, btw?

It's by Save-A-Calf. The guy at the feed store said people usually feed a bag of that-it's a small bag-and then move to the regular Save-A-Calf. I got the qt 3 times a day info from a Mother Earth News article I read. Did I feed him too much?
