Many use a mix of Powdered Puppy Esbilac and Fox Valley 20/50 with excellent results.
It's up to you if you want to use ALL Fox Valley or the 50/50.
The FV 20/50 has more fat in it and that's needed for ages 4 weeks up.
IF you switch, do it gradually, as it can cause diarhhea if done without a transition.
When you get the new FV let us know and we'll help you.

I got the fox valley 20/50. So should I start with 1 part FV and 3 parts esbilac to start the weaving process? I might do a 50/50 mix if people have good results with that

Yes, start like that and use the 3:1 mix for a few feedings and then move up to the 50/50 mix. We have seen good weight gains using them like this.
