[QUOTE="KHereford, post: 1050459, member: 18150"] I understand the thinking about calves not getting the milk in the right place drinking from a bucket and I would believe it but have raised hundreds of Holstein heifers on the bucket. Everyone always commented on how big and healthy they were for there age so I don't think there was a problem. Put grain in front of them right away, I always started with a hand full of good sweet starter feed and made a little pile so that I could tell if the calf was really eating it. [/QUOTE]
