[QUOTE="ilovecowssam3, post: 1585272, member: 38608"] Hi guys! We have a small farm and currently have a few calves ready to be weaned. I’m trying to figure out of there are negative effects of calves continuing to drink on their mothers when we know the mothers are pregnant. I know it can’t be good to continue letting the 6+ month old calves drink off moms that are probably 6+ weeks pregnant... We also have one who is over a year old drinking off other mothers with 2-3 month old babies pushing the babies away. Any tips/advice/knowledge helps! I know the bawling comes with weaning, but I’m so tired of these calves drinking off of their moms OR other moms and knocking the 2-3 month old or less babies away. [/QUOTE]
