[QUOTE="Rydero, post: 1672136, member: 38101"] I had one. Learned pretty quick how to find momma in the pen to suck. The first obstacle was getting her bred. In the end I decided to try them in the pasture and she did a great job of going back to feed him. He would trail behind the herd by a day or so. In the fall it ended up that I think she grew tired of it and weaned him. Had a couple missions to move him here or there, lol. I brought him home cause it got to be a pain worrying about him. Bought a Holstein bottle calf to keep him company and they bonded. The Holstein would help him get around but he could memorize a pen. We'd always show him where the water was. Kept him and the Holstein till he was 3 and they took a trailer ride together and came home in boxes. That's the tale of Gimpy the calf (he limped too). [/QUOTE]
