[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1844643, member: 24816"] It varies from calf to calf, some start in a few days of trying and some take longer, had one that was over a month old before he started eating. You may be already doing this, but I get a little feed in my had and put it in their mouth right after they finish the bottle and are still wanting more from the bottle. A few hands of feed after their bottle for a few days generally does it. The first times they will work a lot of out of their mouth but you can tell after a while they are swallowing most of it. Then they will get to nosing around in the feed pan eventually, I think they take take to it a little faster by putting it their mouths. [/QUOTE]
