I have a 2yr old who calved and walked away. I wasn't around until the next morning. She hadn't licked it at all. Bull calf decided that I was his mother since I was the only one to take care of him. He is a long solid calf. Born May 28, so 7 weeks tomorrow. Fantastic calf, the mother is well built. I had them in a 10x10 pen and gave her a shot of oxytocin, but she still wanted nothing to do with him. I thought maybe that the pain of giving birth made her walk away.
Does anyone think that she would decide to raise her calf next year? I don't really want to raise another calf for her.
Not sure of her breed besides angus cross. She is black and when totally relaxed shows a little ear. Thanks
