Hello y’all, this is an emergency!!
We had 4 ND kids born yesterday, one was still born and the other 3 were fine until today.
The buckling isn’t doing good at all, we had tried giving Replacement Colostrum and a boost. He hardly has wanted to eat and we have been syringe feeding him, but...
Thank you, I am so proud of her! She definitely does seem to be filling out some, i make sure she gets a lot of feed. I definitely won’t get upset, she has already had some stubborn days, especially when it comes to walking 😂 I know patience is key working with these kinda animals, her mama...
Update: I have been working with her everyday, tie up time, walking, trailer loading, brushing, etc.
She is such a good girl, I’m happy with how she is coming along
Her today, she keeps putting all her head weight in the halter, she won’t hold her head up too well, is there away I can get her to start holding her head?
Ok, thank you! I do plan to get her in a higher protein, she does actually have a pretty thick coat, it’s been cold here so she’s not shiny do you the winter coat she is getting in
She is still on her mom, but her mom doesn’t make much milk, so she mostly is growing off hay, grass, and feed. She started eating hay and feed when she was about 1-2 weeks. Now she is 3 months. I will look into a higher protein feed and feed her a lot more, what do you feed your calves...
I brushed her today, was thinking about clipping her Saturday, but with cold weather coming, I don’t know if I should. Also, I feed her about 6 cups of 12% feed a day, of that enough feed? Or should she be eating more?
