    Welger Baler Help

    My baler only has 2 hoses, one for the reel, and one for the back gate. since it doesn't have pressure in the line except when the gate is up, could that really be the problem? I will sure try it and see, cause it's driving me crazy! Thanks JD

    I haven't given any yet, cost 87 dollars per bottle. Trying to get a single dose. What would cause this deficiency? Why would it be in this calf and not the rest? We have about 90 head.

    Calf wont nurse

    I'm beginning to think the calf is mentally retarded. Maybe it didn't get enough oxygen at birth, even though it was an easy delivery. The calf is still physically healthy, But still is not interested at all in a bottle. The only way I can get it to nurse is hold its head and force it in, it has...
