[QUOTE="Rancher, post: 1798095, member: 16512"] I suggest fix a quart of milk replacer in the nurse bottle make sur it's about 110 degrees. Straddle the calf holding it's chin up while forcing the nipple into the side of his mouth, keep at it for several minutes. If hard to stay astride him back him into corner keeping his head up high and nipple into side of mouth. I've had to do a bunch this way over past 50yrs. Put the remaining milk in the fridge and rewarm for another try. Sometimes takes a couple days but he will get the idea soon [/QUOTE]
