[QUOTE="devonian, post: 1797966, member: 38413"] I salute this giving the calf just a small amount about a litre is often a good idea I think in this situation when you aren't sure wether the calf has sucked or not as it means the calf gets some nutrition and won't die and maybe learns how to suck but also means the calf is still hungry and will hopefully go wondering for the natural milk dispenser. Otherwise if you feed it too much the calf gets full lies down, mum feels obsolete and pissed, calf might start seeing you as the milk person and you have potentially interrupted the natural order of things.
