[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 12873"] So I pulled two huge bull calves last night, left them with their mommas to let nature take its course, came out two hours later and they were damn near dead. (30 below windchill) I brought them in the house, dryed them off, tubed them with colostrum, got their body temp up and put them in small pens with moms. The heifers are sniffing around them but not "mothering" them.Do you think they will figure it out or am I in for two weeks of putting them in the chute to nurse? I've had mixed results over the years and would appreciate any insight from people that have a sure fire method. Or at least maybe BlackPower can tell me how to graft them on a goat. [/QUOTE]
