[QUOTE="bcarty, post: 1018545, member: 17617"] We always skinned the dead calf and tied the hide on the back of the orphan calf. This always seemed to work for us. There is also some sort of powder I have heard of people using that you put on the calf and when the cow smells it she seems to accept that it is her calf, but I am not sure about how that product works or how you are supposed to use it. I have never used it. The problem is when you turn the calf with the cow she can smell him and she knows thats not her calf. You have to get her to take the calf by smell if you want her to own it.
