[QUOTE="Fred, post: 346006, member: 125"] I have a calf that I got up yesterday that I did't think had sucked yet. I put the cow in the chute and milked her. I tried to give him the bottle but he would barely suck it.I went ahead and tubed him with 2 quarts of milk. Today I let him suck the bottle a little bit and then put him on his mother in the chute. I think he is going to be ok now. He sucked on his own after I let his mother out of the chute. I don't think he got any colostrum in the first 24 hours but hopfully he will be ok. [/QUOTE]
