[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 416153, member: 3306"] I lost the only calf I tubed. He never took the bottle and I could nevr make him take it. I have done the "straddle and force" method and it has worked for calvest that have been on the mamma, but if you have been tubing him for that long, I don't think he'll make it. I hated tubing myself. I had to get someone to help me and I hate cramming that tube down the throat. I did have a calf, the one in my freezer right now, who was three weeks old when I got him and he never took a bottle. He was bigger and better than the other bottle calves I had. He's tasty, too.
