Sucks to lose a heifer.. glad you got the calf grafted with what seems to be minimal fuss... I lost a good cow 3 weeks ago, her orphan has 3 mommas.. The heifer that lost her calf early in the year I milked by hand for a long time.. she is very very slowly warming up to the calf, then there are two other cows that just get tired of chasing him off.. He gets a bottle every day or two if he looks really hungry.. I have 3 left to go... So far I have 13 bull calves and 7 heifers.. really lopsided this year.
