[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1623929, member: 24027"] Yes. I'm also a fan of Nursemate ASAP and a little molasses inside the calfs' mouth. If the calf will suck your finger, I generally get it latched on then guide the calf to a teat, switch out my finger to the teat while supporting the calf in position with my legs. The calf really needs colostrum within the first 6 hours; after 24 hours the gut begins to close and doesn't absorb the antibodies. [/QUOTE]
