[QUOTE="Mountaintown Creek Ranch, post: 1819034, member: 42313"] If she's bagging now, she will make milk. She just a little late to the game. Just need to be there to see if she kicks it off. Some Heifers just have no maternal instinct at first. I give them about maybe 10 minutes of the calf trying and if she won't let them nurse, I put her in a chute and force it..... And don't forget to tie Mama's leg !!! Our last heifer had 3 forced feedings and now she is a great momma. [/QUOTE]
