Bottle feeding a bull calf

[jamie]

and the Purina milk replacer seems agreeable to him. Hey Karen tell John the trick on giving the bull calf a bit of calf feed worked.

Now the boy seems to be nibbling on some of it out of the bucket like John said he would!!!

This boy takes around 5 1/2 quarts a day !!! I'll be feeding him for at least 3 months and then change over to something like Starta or Starten; I don't know I'll have to check with the co-op.

Hi Chance, good to hear from you.

The lil' guy keep butting me like crazy even after I feed him, lol, so I started feeding him through the fence!! ;D

What cha been up to lately? How's your calving going and who'd you bred your stock to?

We ended up using our WSC x OV bull and so far 11 of 20 have popped up around here lol...they are white with and without spots, just like their daddy. Boy his genes are dominating this year big time. All are nice and clean.

I'm watching the Thunder and Lakers play off and will determine whether or not there will be a tie breaker in LA.
