[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1622309, member: 38038"] I agree that I would start by bringing the cow back to the area where the calf is. It is not unusual for a cow to leave her calf for a period of time. I hope the calf was able to get a good supply of colostrum. If you do not see the calf nurse or the calf is up looking for mommy but not reuniting with the cow, I would start offering it the bottle. I would move cow and calf to a small area if possible. It sounds to me that if the calf is laying comfortable it probably has a tommy full. Hope everything turns out good. [/QUOTE]
