I forgot what a pain in the butt bottle babies are! We had to hog panel the inside-barn pen, then put up some tarps to help keep our mega winds (cold right now) at bay, and a couple of extra straw bales where he wants to nest. I went to town and got a Lab-sized water-proof dog coat and a tube of probios. He was pretty chilled on arrival at noon and not interested in eating. He has been on both Mom and the bottle since he was born Wednesday, and was not keen on the bottle at all for feeding of a quart today at 2:30 (but he took it); he was hungry and better at 5:30, and we'll get him again at 8:30. Then, 4 one-qt. feedings a day until he moves up to bigger doses farther apart. He's only, maybe 40 lbs. He also has a low-dose heat lamp, that we'll turn off during the day if it's not bitter (or take off the coat -- one or t'other). I had forgotten how much trouble cold-weather bottle babies can be. Yes, this one is likely over-protected; but no, no issues about turning him into beef.
