[QUOTE="herfdog, post: 749497, member: 7374"] I have a Feltons 517 bull calf that was a twin to a heifer and mom didn’t want anything to do with the bull so I am feeding it. How could I get as close to feeding a calf myself as momma does it. I want it to be as close in size as I can to the other 517 bulls. I wanted heifers but ended up with 4 bulls and a twin heifer thats the way my luck is. Should I feed it milk replacer for 6 months with calf starter and hay/grass? Any suggestions on feeding this hopefully future herd bull would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 517 bottle calf [img]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz133/herfdog/2003_0101Image0013.jpg?t=1270177525[/img] 517 bull [img]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz133/herfdog/2003_0101Image0031.jpg?t=1270177775[/img] 517 bull [img]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz133/herfdog/2003_0101Image0035.jpg?t=1270177850[/img] 517 bull [img]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz133/herfdog/2003_0101Image0017.jpg?t=1270177923[/img] 517 twin heifer [img]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz133/herfdog/2003_0101Image0023.jpg?t=1270178266[/img] [/QUOTE]
