[QUOTE="Carrie, post: 135554, member: 361"] Hi all, Had to pull a bull calf (failure to progress) out of a heifer 72 hours ago. Both calf and mom seem fine except mom doesn't seem to be making any milk. The calf is on her all the time, she's well fed and hydrated, we've tried warm towels on her udder and finally hit her with some oxytocin (2 5cc doses 12 hours apart) Still not much milk. We gave the little guy some colostrum and have given him a couple suplemental bottles to keep him going, as he acts like he's starving. How long should you wait for a heifer to come in to her milk? Any thoughts? Carrie [/QUOTE]
