[QUOTE="akfarmgirl, post: 549338, member: 8322"] My children are raising 2 Holstein bull calves for 4H. They are 4 months old now. One is bigger weighing in at 235lbs (Oreo) with the smaller one weighing in at 200lbs (Domino). (Domino got pneumonia at 2 months and his weight has suffered.) We are still bottle feeding 1 time per day (at night) but we are having a problem with Oreo trying to "nurse" on Domino after they are done with their bottles. Oreo will start to urinate while Domino is "nursing" but that doesn't stop Domino. Is this normal behavior or should we stop it? If so HOW????? I have thought about separating them but wouldn't they get lonely? We will be taking them to our fair in August and are bottle feeding them to be "friendly" to all the fair goers. Any advice will be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
