Default Need Advice Diahhrea in 2 week pups

I have 5, 2 week old pups, I have been bottle feeding for the last
week due to mom having hypocalcimia. This am I found 2 of the pups
have diahhrea. I did have to substitute 1 bottle of their normal
formula for the esbliac kind friday evening as we ran out, I only fed
them one bottle. Could this be the issue?

The other thing I am concerned with is that they try to "nurse" of
each other... meaning the go for the penis and such. I stop them each
time I see them, and offer them bottles a lot, could this be the
problem. I need help as the open er here is over a 2 hour drive. I need
advice on how to make them stop, and if I diahhrea is related to the
food, and/or the urine. I have a appt for regular vet in the am
monday.

Could diahrea be caused due to change from mom as well, they seemed
pretty thick the first few days, just this am is this a problem..

Thanks

I am trying to let one nurse off a little off mom as well, as he seems to have the hardest time.
