[QUOTE="Little Cow, post: 715552, member: 5507"] Hi there, Haven't been around in awhile. Been busy with our 15 month old son (napping right now) and we're at the tail end of our calving season. I raise those little "ankle-biter" cows. You know, Dexters. :lol2: Has anyone used Orphan-No-More when introducing a calf to a foster cow? My other option is to give her a little Ace before introducing the new calf. My scheme is to pick up a local five day old bottle calf for $25 and put him on my cow that just had a stillborn calf. She lost her calf yesterday. I left the calf in with her so she could figure out he was gone vice run around looking for it. I just buried it this morning and she is out there still bellowing for her calf. She's my best momma cow and a great milker but we have no time to milk her. It would be nice to get a freezer calf though. Anyone see a hole in my scheme? :idea: [/QUOTE]
