[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1617316, member: 9267"] She'll probably take what she wants off the cow first then come for her bottle, because fresh milk is nicer. I'd offer two bottles if she's sucking one dry, stick with the one if she's playing with it & healthy. Six - eight litres a day is "enough" for a good-sized calf. But they'll drink a lot more than that if they can get it. Cows to a certain extent make up production in other quarters if they lose one, a 3/4 is almost as good as a 4-quarter but with only 1 quarter I don't know... [/QUOTE]
