[QUOTE="preston39, post: 106001, member: 1487"] ctlbaron, Sounds like you have a good hook up. Have you told him the problem you are experiencing? Ask the dairyman for some of mom's milk as a calf starter. See what he says. Why wouldn't it be available.She can't hold the milk for five days...the milk has got to go somewhere. I probably wouldn't want a calf until he is 4-5 days old unless I KNEW the first 24 hr history. Give a vet the history...you may have picked up a bug. I remember from my child days when we sold grade A milk...a freshened cow kept the calf for 5 days. What milk he didn't take we strip milked and fed to the hogs. That was the rule for new milk...I don't think it has changed. [/QUOTE]
