Watching the new guy, I'll bet he was in a pen before and not hooked. He doesn't look to happy dealing with it either. Poor guy, everything he knew is gone. He didn't want to eat this morning either. Wouldn't suck or nothing. Hopefully, this afternoon's feeding goes better.

Yes, a red and and white holstein bull. He is really long legged too.
He's got Brahma legs!
Able to jump tall fences in a single bound!
Without touching the fence!

:lol:
Him and the rest are unhappy. It is nasty out there. I just watched Hurricane stick her nose out and she quickly backed up into the shelter part of the pen.

I can't count how many times I have rushed to the barn on nasty days, to the call of urgent mooings, only to find a calf on the slab, under the roof, calling to it's mother that is 50 feet away, under at tree, calling the calf!
Neither one wants to get wet, give in, or just shut up!

hope you can get him to eating good.
He drank good this afternoon. He was even adding to the chorus of voices telling me it was feeding time and he got excited when he saw the pail.
