[QUOTE="piedmontese, post: 1100576, member: 14427"] If its 5 weeks now you got a ways to go. It all depends on how good you can get her eating grain. You can wean at 12 weeks easily if I have her on grain and hay good.if that's the plan I would cut her back to 1 bottle at about 10 weeks to encourage her to eat more grain and hay. No need to give her more than 2 bottles a day unless u want her to get scours. Give her fresh water everyday,even if she didn't drink it. Keep grain out but not much yet because if it sits too long they don't want it.feed her calf manna, not sweet feed. [/QUOTE]
