[QUOTE="Dana Kopp, post: 510230, member: 873"] We put an orphaned calf on a cow that had a stillborn calf and thus never nursed - it was roughly three or four weeks after the cow calved and the orphan was at least a month to month and half old. She never came back with her "normal" amount of milk but she did supplement him enough to keep him from being too stunted. It was a lot of work as she knew she didn't have a calf anymore but we used a lot of O-No-More (a powdered calf claimer stuff) and they eventually bonded. Don't know if I'd try it again... [/QUOTE]
