[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1317037, member: 9096"] another 2 calves last night.. Nelly (BIG roan cow) had a bull calf at about 4 am, she likes to lay in the mud, calf couldn't find the teats by 7 am, she's certainly not a cow you turn your back on either... Chroma at 6am.. She's got a big heifer calf.. calf was too strong and excited to get a teat into her mouth, so I gave her a quick hand,... didn't take much, Chroma is a great cow, great udder, and totally calm, so it was a 2 minute job.. Then I went to deal with Nelly, brought the calf down the chute and locked momma in, with a little work I got the calf connected and he drained a quarter.. put them in a little pen together for a while for him to figure the rest out on his own. Going to kick the 5 other calves out today into the large paddock.. I'm going to have to watch them learn about electric fence. [/QUOTE]
