[QUOTE="jgn, post: 105582, member: 128"] If it's a first calf heifer I'd say leave it alone till it's a couple of days old before you attempt to do anything to it if there is anything you want to do. The cow will have enough things to try and figure out on her own without having to worry about why your trying to hurt or steal her calf. My best advice for the first couple of days would be to just observe to make sure she is letting the calf nurse. Sometimes it takes them a little while to figure out that little eating machine is supposed to be latching on to them. [/QUOTE]
