[QUOTE="lmp570, post: 640869, member: 6510"] see thats the whole problem i believe and i forgot to mention it earlier. when she was born i was out of town and my farm hand was supposed 2 be keeping a close eye on her and he thought she was sucking, but she wasnt... she was just trying. the cows teat was too big for the calf to fit it in his mouth. so she went 36 hours without adequate milk before i was able to get to the farm and see that she wasnt able to nurse at all. as soon as i saw she couldnt nurse, i began bottle feeding her and milking the cow. so she DEFINEATLY didnt get adequate colostrum after birth.
