How many gallons in 50lbs of MR?
Just curious as I have some one wanting to buy some milk "containers" for baby calves and want to price it so its reasonable. I dont have any other outlet for the extra milk so I want it to be an attractive sale.

It depends on how much milk replacer the directions say to mix with a gallon of water. If you mix one pound of MR with a gallon of water, then fifty pounds of MR will make fifty gallons.
