[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 497729, member: 4674"] I had a cow die last spring after calving. I kept the calve up and bottle fed it until it would take the bottle. I then turned it out with the herd. I would ride the atv to the pasture with two bottles of milk replacer. She was fed two bottles in the morning and then two in the late evening. She never scoured and did very well. She finally took up with a calve friend and that calf's mother let her suck I then quit bottle feeding. She is the same size as the rest of the calves her age. I have raised calves in the past and had a lot of troubles I think that I was not giving them enough milk. I did what the other posters did to get her on the bottle. [/QUOTE]
