[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 646809, member: 5106"] Well lets hope the calf got something from mom as it is unlikely that the it absorbed very much if any IgG's from the colostrum you gave it but it is better to give colostrum than not. I would give it an oral dose of B12 and A&D and then start you calf on really good started milk replacer it is designed for the first couple of weeks of a calf's life. Then you can feed it normal all milk replacer that you give your other calves. Good luck with it and just watch it so if it does start to scour or go down hill you and treat it asap..Sounds like it is doing well if it is hungry for the bottle all the time.. [/QUOTE]
