If you have contenttypes in installed app

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
)

Use script like what for copying you entry to new base:

from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType

    def run():

        def do(Table):
            if Table is not None:
                table_objects = Table.objects.all()
                for i in table_objects:
                    i.save(using='slave')

        ContentType.objects.using('slave').all().delete()

        for i in ContentType.objects.all():
            do(i.model_class())
