[QUOTE="WinterSpringsFarm, post: 1621288, member: 26533"] i have not read all the other responses so I apologize if this has been repeated. I used to milk Brown Swiss cattle, and raise Brown Swiss calves. We uses to show Brown Swiss exclusively, so I have a lot of experience with them. They are notoriously horrible at taking a nipple. I tubed one for 30 days straight, then one day its light went on and it started to suck the bucket. All I can say is keep trying. I have managed to get a few to drink out of a bucket from time to time. They are stubborn and stupid at the same time, and that makes for a bad combination for bottle training. [/QUOTE]
