[QUOTE="plumber_greg, post: 645280, member: 9115"] For years I have calved in the winter. I force feed them a little milk and some really sweet syrup, about a quarter a gallon, and within a few minutes they are ready to suck. Drying them off is not nearly as important as their core temp. Stick your finger in their mouth, if it feels cold, use the feeding tube and warm them up. You will be amazed how fast they recover. gs [/QUOTE]
