[QUOTE="cah, post: 517550, member: 6411"] Great news! Sunday Morning the baby would not take the bottle... I got up at 5 A.M. and also tried to feed again at 9A.M. no luck the baby would not take the bottle... I pushed him over by the momma and he latched on big time! I think during the night he got hungery and found his momma. Thank you all for your help and I will print it for the future. To the ones that questioned us on doing our homework we did do our homework but like I said we are new at this and would like to get opinions, I'm sure you all did not know all the "details" and "tricks" to getting the baby to drink and other things that go wrong with calving on your first year. The reason I asked about how much bottle to feed was just a question, My husband did know the anwser he did ask the vet and I didn't know it.. we love our little guys and just want what is best for them. The reason our vet didn't suggest trying the momma right off is because the calf was too weak to even stand... he told us when his energy was up that was the time to try... But we lucked out and he latched on by himself. :banana: Thanks again for all your input especailly those that were nice. Thanks [/QUOTE]
