I would say if you didn't get calves that were started on the cows you are probably in trouble. The first couple of days of mom's colostrum pretty much sets their immune systems up. We used to have lot's of cows and calved in the winter. Used to have to bring several in during bad winter weather, but it was very hard to keep them alive. I would assume there might be some sort of new fangled starter, but don't know for sure. You should probably talk to a vet to see what they have now a days. I don't know if scour pills will help or not, again I would call a local vet.
