[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 1140988, member: 839"] Initially that calf probably won't want that bottle. The milk will taste different, the nipple will be different and certainly having you handle it will be different. Don't give up! It can be done. I have done it on several occasions. Let that baby get good and hungry, then back it into a corner with your butt and the calf's butt into that corner, have the calf's neck and head between your knees then tilt the head up, shove the bottle in, squeeze it a bit to get some milk out, do this a few times and eventually that calf will take to the bottle.
