[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 39579, member: 13"] Offer them fresh water and hay for the first day. After that, take them some sweet feed twice a day, in addition to the hay. After three days, our Angus calves generally aren't looking for their momma, they're watching for me to take them a bucket of feed. The biggest calves are usually the hardest to wean here; their mommas are the heaviest milkers. But generally by the fourth day, the calves are more interested in my bucket than they are their mommas bawling outside the corral. Later you can turn them out on grass, though if you're growing these girls out to be bred as 15 month old heifers, I'd continue to give them some sort of grain. [/QUOTE]
