[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 524196, member: 4353"] What also helps is if you milk the cow out and basically bath the calf in the cows milk, make sure you get the hindend of the calf very wet with the cows milk, that way the salt will stick better. Just don't get overconfident, sooner or later you'll come across a cow that will allow the calf to suckle while you're standing next to her, but kick the crap out of it as soon as you walk away. I had one a few years ago, after standing next to the cow with the calf suckling for 10 weeks I decided the calf is old enough to steal off other cows and got rid of the cow, the calf did fine, he must have been a good thief.
