[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 671250, member: 7509"] I apologize to the group if I am missing something, but even with my little experience with cattle it seems like these dairy bull calves, pulled from the cow way too early, sometimes even before getting colostrum, are often a source of problems. If the above calves were on the cows for 2 months that is unusually long but still not really enough. Looking at my Hereford calves aggressively nursing on their cows it is hard to see how you could really replace that at this point (2 months old). They nibble some grass but not near enough to replace the milk they are getting. Jim [/QUOTE]
