The last one I weaned pretty late. I'd have to look but I know she went thru at least 5 bags of milk b4 I weaned her off of it. Shes the one I started this thread about. She was difficult to get started on feed compared to this lil bull calf. She was definitely a learning experience. I think shes about 15 months old now.What age do you wean your bottle calves at?

It was weird because if I pushed on his flank he would air down. Now I wean my steer calves at 7 week's, but after what happened with this calf I'm thinking about weaning my other calf that is 5 weeks old, he is eating 4 pounds of grain a day and 1 bottle of milk.
Love those fluffy ears!@MurraysMutts I also have a Dolly - her calves are named either Ken or Barbie. Pic of her the day after she was weaned. Epic fluffy ears!View attachment 1150
