[QUOTE="cornstalk, post: 75572, member: 911"] Thanks so much for all the quick responces! :lol: I did as advised, and put the cow in the headgate,......fortunately she allowed me to milk her without having to tie a foot back. I milked out about a pint and a half of colustrum, put it in a bottle........and went back to the barn, and new calf. It took her a little bit to get the hang of sucking, but when she did.......she purt near mt'd the bottle ! I saved about a half a pint for later if necessary. Then released the cow, and put her back into the barn with the calf. It's amazing to me how much her attitude has changed since early this morning. She seems to be much more concerned about the calf now, she's licking it,......and doing quite a bit of talking. (short moo's) I think I may be in business. If I could just see the calf sucking on mom now,......I'd feel much better. Thanks again everyone for your responces! What a great bunch of people!! Much abliged! Ryan If I could figure out how to post a picture,........I'd post one for you all.[/img] [/QUOTE]
