You should expect to feed milk replacer until they are about 6 weeks old, but you go by weight and their ability to eat dry feed, not necessarily age. Regarding milk replacer from the Fleet stores- you get what you pay for. Cheaper per pound, but you feed more pounds. Check with a commercial feed dealer and compare products. First day colostrum is most important- good chance that a 1-3 day old at the sales barn didn't get it. First 12-24 hours is vital, calf loses absorption ability very quickly.
