    Default Esbilac Poll

    Asking members which Esbilac can they have been using and whether or not they had issues with their babies while on it.
    Old can has a flag on the bottom left corner that says, "Made in the USA".
    Newer can has a star graphic and says, "Crafted in the USA with domestic and imported ingredients".

    **See poll above**

    It is possible that you have one of the older cans of Esbilac that is good. Out of an abundance of caution I would go ahead and order Fox Valley 20:50 and get them on it as soon as possible.

    The issues with Esbilac right now have poisoned the well for me. I will never use any of their products ever again nor will I recommend it. Even if they ‘fix’ the problem I can’t use PetAg products again.

    Well don't count my vote because it's early and I read it wrong somehow..? Mine should be "New can - had issues". Sorry..

    I can vote for little Petey Pancake cos I had his mom bring me the can. And, why yes it is the new can that caused that sweet wonderful baby squirrel to have almost every bone broken in his body.

    Makes me want to cry to see that sweet baby like that. Will he survive? Poor, poor darling!

    I unceremoniously (and somewhat angrily) threw out the can, but I believe it to have been the new stuff, as the plain blue banner adorned the top with mentions of probiotics elsewhere on the can, and I definitely had problems with my baby. I regret that I didn't notice the "Made" or "Crafted" bit of information on the can.
