[QUOTE="Syd Sydney, post: 368664, member: 6255"] I have just read this post for the first time and it is easy to get excited when you don't see them nurse especially when it seems like every time you go check the little was is sleaping like a log. But I don't understand this last reaction to the previous comments this is a forum where everyone can post their opinions if you don't agree then don't follow that particular advice.I am sure intervening with every new born calf works well for you I know alot of dairy farmers that still tube the first feeding of colostrum.However some beleive that the first hour of the cow and new calfs life together will establish the bonding and there is no more complete bonding than when the calf drinks from the cow and the cow suckles the calf. I do agree that thoughthat everyone needs extra colostrom on hand at all times so that is ther if you need it hopefully you never will. Syd [/QUOTE]
