Hello everyone, what a nice forum..
I was wondering if anyone could help us with more information on how to raise young calves. My husband has done it a very long time ago, and I have never done it, and of course worry a lot about our 4 calves, who are about a month old.
How much nutrition should they get a day? We give them milk formula for calves, twice a day as instruction says. Also we give them calf startena couple times a day. Do we need to give anything else for their proper nutrition? Do we need to give them vitamins of any sort?
How long should we bottle feed them before letting them join the main herd?
that's my first questions I ponder on. Thank you in advance to everyone who will respond.
