In this paper are presented results of usage of domestic and imported milk replacers. Domestic replacer is produced in the Factory of Plant Oils and Proteins Bioprotein from Obrenovac, within the business system Bankom, Belgrade (Serbia). Domestic milk replacer quality was adjusted according to modern regulations in calves' nutrition. The best materials were applied as milk replacer's ingredients. Contents of bacteria per one gram of sample was lower than 50,000. There were no of fungi, mould or pathogenic microorganisms present in the sample. Calves were consuming milk replacers in the amount of 6-7 L daily, but divided in two equal quantities in the morning and evening. Period of liquid nutrition lasted two months, which was the end of the trial. During the trial, calves that were consuming domestic milk replacer achieved average daily body weight gain (526 g), higher compared to calves that were consuming imported milk replacer (479 g). The difference was statistically significant (p is less than 0.05). There were no health disorders or mortality, in both groups of calves.
