[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 386594, member: 5106"] I have seen beef especially herfords from the time they drop to ten minutes later up and nursing.Dairy bull calves I have seen them not be able to stand for a minimum of 24 hours at times.Especially the huge dumb ones;you know the ones that can't even suck from a bottle properly.Nothing worse than a 130lb dumb dumb.I think you just have to be patient.As long as it is healthy it will eventually stand.All you can do is get his colostrum into him a wait.I have heard that stimulation to the hips and hocks helps so you might try massaging them.
