[QUOTE="Suzie Q, post: 764051, member: 14334"] For what you have done for this calf you deserve for it to live and be accepted by the cow. I have only had one cow that would not accept a calf that was not hers and that was without using the original calfs skin or poo. Just put in the chute for a week and then in a smaller area with me standing there with a piece of polly pipe that means don't attack calf. The cow that would not accept the calf, her own calf died because she did not open the sack at birth. She never accepted the calf we bought to replace it. She just did not want to be a momma, so I had to going out there for half an hour twice a day for him to feed off her. She would let him feed if I was standing there, but not if I wasn't. Without fail that would be when the phone rings :roll: We ended up getting rid of her and keeping him. [/QUOTE]
