I have 2 6 week old calves on 1 acre of very grassy paddock. Lately they have not been drinking much milk and eating nil pellets.
I cannot restrict the grass, but WILL next time, but to ensure more milk and possible pellets are consumer, can I make water ONLY available at night (except on warm days)??? Right now its still winter-weather.
I just need them to drink more milk and eat more pellets otherwise weaning will be delayed. Can I remove water during the day when ample milk has been fed/is available?
