[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 649456, member: 5106"] It is doubtful that you can bottle feed a 2 month old, once they have had real milk form a cow for that long they usually will not go to a bottle especially milk replacer it's yucky to them.. I would however separate the calf and get it on grain asap and good hay. The other heifer more than likely does not have enough milk for two so you will get to sh@tty calves instead of one a little behind.. Keep trying to separate them ... [/QUOTE]
