[QUOTE="chippie, post: 573534, member: 5644"] My BIL has a dairy. He has his bottle calves in a large pen with a 3 sided shed for protection from the elements. For feeding he has a set up where each calf goes into a chute (can't think of a better word right now) and the bottles hang on a 2 x 6 board. The calves can't get to their neighbor's bottle and the set up keeps them from fighting over the bottles. It looks sort of like this. The blue things are the bottles. (I am not very good with Paint.)

Good luck! PS. If they are bull calves. The sooner you castrate them, the easier it is on them. [/QUOTE]
