[QUOTE="Dyann, post: 46292, member: 30"] Had a bottle baby like that too.. she did not know what she was supposed to do with it. At two weeks, I pulled her out of the pasture, she was sick and not doing to well. She never really got to see anyone eating, grazing etc. I kept bottle feeding her as usual, only I diluted the milk a bit more. I did not want her filing up on milk, nor did I want her dyhrdyrating or giving up any of the ground we had already covered. I left fresh sweet feed for her, in a feeder on the wall (at her height) and everytime I would come out to bottle feed, I would stick a little in her mouth. It took about 2 weeks and she finally went from nosing it around to eating it. She grew up just fine.. actually a really nice cow. So be patient, your calf will get the hang of it. [/QUOTE]
