[QUOTE="susie, post: 220087, member: 1553"] It means try to get the calf to nurse from Mom. Do you have a headgate or sturdy post you coould restrain Mom and let calf nurse, or milk the mom out yourself and feed it to the calf. or go to the store and get milk replacer and maybe some more colostrum if you're going to bottle feed the baby. Most people like to try to get the cow to accept the calf because bottle-feeding is a big job, and the calf will be healthier if it's nursing it's mom. Does that make sense? Susie [/QUOTE]
