[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1350573, member: 17304"] Maybe the calf just never got all the milk he wanted. Years ago my Dad culled this cow he didn't like for some reason and she had about a 300lb. calf on it. Kept the calf, but it never grew worth squat....not getting enough protein. He was a runt beside the other calves. Fast forward a year and that years calves were bigger than he was when they were about 6 months old. Dad decided to creep feed that summer and that runty calf did a 180 degree turnaround, he started filling out grew good from them on. He was just not getting enough protein is all I could figure.
