[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 69955, member: 839"] Hmmm, that's a dilema. I hope your daughter gets well/home soon. As far as that calf goes, yeah, 40lbs is small but I have seen them make it. Keep milking out mom and feeding that direct to baby and keep trying to get the little guy to suck. I'd keep those two to themselves until they get it sorted out.(with your assistance of course) As for the breeding age heifer, I had one "try" that stunt a few times, I re-separated her out and waited another month, then put her back with the herd, she tried to suck again, but by then those that she attempted gave her the "boot" and that was the end of it. Good luck. Katherine [/QUOTE]
