[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 349125, member: 968"] Milkmaid - that would sure be a tough one to figure out!! Stinky is doing great. I'm still chicken & I put him & mom in barn at night. Weather turning nasty again. Windy, snow & temp dropping to 0 tonight. Haven't had any problem at calving time. These two problems were 7-10 day old calves. Only calf we have had a problem with at birth (besides a full breech) was a big dummy calf born last Friday - cow spit him out OK. Knuckled over, 120# non-sucker. :mad: This was out of one of my traditional old red & white cows, bred to a bull we hadn't tried. Gave him 4cc BoSe at birth, gave another 3cc later when I got his weight & knew he had no instinct to suck, and gave another 2cc next day. 3rd day his "sucker" woke up! He is getting around OK now & finally sucking mom as of last night. [/QUOTE]
