[QUOTE="holly heifer, post: 199715, member: 2767"] Is this a bull calf? If he does survive will he be a pet or will he be destined for a feed lot? Or your freezer? We do not eat the ones we raise, we get one of the neighbors. Any way, i have raised lots of bottle calves, the heifers I have kept and are raising calves that are sold at weaning age. (Pays for my horse hobby) :lol: My point is a feeder calf that has a limb issue may not do well in a feedlot . The competing for feed, ect. Also a pet steer is not the most economical critter to keep around. ( I have done that in the past- never again :oops: ) Just some food for thought ;-) [/QUOTE]
