[QUOTE="dun, post: 445741, member: 34"] About all you could do is take the calf off and bottle feed it or if possibl set up a creep feeder for that one calf. 3 weeks isn;t an adequate dry period for her to dry off, generate cholostorum and get things lined up for feeding a new calf. Calf may alwasy have some minor health issues because of the lack of the quality and/or quality cholostrum. The cow isn;t going to come into more milk so it's a losing proposition expecting her to raise a good calf this time. If she continues to try to feed it there is also a possibility it could have longer term affects on her subsequent calf. [/QUOTE]
