Chillin' with the herd
We got 4 new Holstein calves Saturday afternoon (they were a week old, pulled from their moma) & they all sucked their bottles fine. Sunday morning they did okay (not quite as good as Saturday). Sunday night, yesterday and this morning two of them are not really sucking any. We have tried a different nipple and it didn't seem to help. They seem to be feeling fine. I am just worried because they aren't taking even a pint of milk replacement at each feeding (AM & PM).
I am going to get some electrolyte gel today and I am going to try the syringe trick at the PM feeding today.
Any suggestions welcome?
Thanks in advance!
