[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1672449, member: 9096"] Another heifer born last night to a first timer.. (that's 6 in a row for the heifers now)... Momma is dumb, calf is dumb.. of course it was at 2am, so I didn't get to bed til 4.. calf would suck my finger but would not take a teat, ended up bottling it some colostrum and left it for the night.. I did get it to nurse a bit this morning but I'm not confident it can find them on its own.. Momma isn't paying any attention to it (I'm just happy she's not trying to kill it at this point)... she wandered off, calf was bawling, she didn't care. I'm going to go feed it some more and try and get it on the teats again [/QUOTE]
