[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 541323, member: 852"] You said he's nursing... and that you're tubing him too? I think since he's 4 days of age I'd just stop with the tubing if you see he'll nurse on his own. Keep an eye on him and if it looks like he needs to be turned into a bottle calf then separate them. Often times though, it's easy to underestimate just how much a cow produces. Got a ~700lb holstein 1st calf heifer in the milking herd that does pretty well although she is about half the size of all the others. --just saw angie's post-- what are you tubing this calf with?
