Hi Dexterlady,
It is very normal for Dexter calves that are 2 to 3 months old to have a change in their manure for a day or two when their rumen transitions and actually starts to function as a rumen. If the calf is healthy in all other aspects and eating well, the white manure will only last for a couple of days and then it will become the normal brown stuff.
