If you haven't changed her milk routine at all, not to cold of bottles, different milk replacer brand etc. than it is almost always cocci, worms or ecoli. And in that order. What wormer are you using, our kids are wormed at 3 weeks old the first time. We also use Sulfaquinoxiline 20% from pipevet.com in their bottles, 2cc per 50 pounds for 5 days every 3 weeks, this gives us prevention of cocci and bacterial/pnemonia/scours, so we know if we are seeing diarrhea with them on prevention plus wormed that we have something serious going on. Prevention is the secret bullet here! Use the keopectate to stop her up but first get some of the poop to the vet to have them fecal sample for worms and cocci. The "not going to the vet refridgerator method" is to worm her, use a sulfa, and a pumper full of spectam scour halt for ecoli twice a day, along with keopectate. I am not a believer of the electorlytes, keep them on their calories which is milk, and instead if they are dehydrated than inject sub q fluids. Vicki
