[QUOTE="Iowa-angus, post: 541281, member: 8298"] I also probly fraised it wrong in my first post. We also make hay avalible to them if they want some. They seem to like it. At first we started them out on land o' lakes milk replacer, then we started to take some decalb coated starter in our hands and then get them to suck it off. then they licked it off, and after a while we had them on free choice amount of starter. In this time they were still on the milk replacer. I little bit after that we cut them down to one feeding a day of milk, and a higher amount of starter in the bucket each time we refilled. Then we switched to a diferent brand of replacer, I don't remember what. it was not coated. we then presented hay also, and yesterday we took them off of the bottle completly. [/QUOTE]
