[QUOTE="NC Liz, post: 1073254, member: 20396"] First let me say this. I wouldn’t feed a Holstein calf on milk from a Jersey cow unless you dilute it. Their milk is too high in butter fat and can cause scouring. As for when to band, band them as soon as the testicles are large enough to find easily and grasp. I wouldn’t give them any shots if they are healthy. They should be receiving all the antibodies and immunity they need from the cows milk. I would be careful when weaning a Holstein calf at 10 weeks as they are normally slower to take to feed and grass/hay. liz [/QUOTE]
