[QUOTE="angie1, post: 738411, member: 3886"] Wow, hate to advise you to mess with that calf if mom is taking care of him. I would have to guess he is nursing, even if you aren't seeing it. Would it be possible for you to put food coloring on her tits so that you can tell if they have been nursed? Often times they nurse when you are not watching. Mom does not want him to nurse if she see's you watching as it is a more vulnerable position for both of them, and you are a potential predator ~ especially now that you have handled him. [/QUOTE]
