Summary:Total concentration of short-chain fatty acids was negligible in small intestinal contents of calves on hay-grain and milk-type rations. There was an increase in the large intestine and cecum to approximately the level found in rumen contents in calves receiving hay-grain and milk plus 15% lactose. Milk and milk plus 5% lactose resulted in a significantly lower (P
