:lol: i am with the others here, it depends on how the calf is doing. I weaned the starter calf at 4months, her half sister
at 6mo( she had a really rough start- no colustrum, born
too early, developed pneumonia,) and the last calf at 3 mo.
She is an angus- holstein. ( Amish calf) She is so gentle my
nephew took her to a pet Halloween contest. She marched right up onto the Rural King store. She wore a baby bonnet,
diaper, pink vet wrap on her pasterns and a pink ribbon on her
neck and tail. :lol2: They got a third place out of 50 entries
( dogs and cats). this next week she is to be a reindeer in the
school Christmas program!
And yes, buying milk replacer
is expensive! :roll:
