I miss my bum calves this year but alas, it just wasn't to be. How long do you bottle feed? For a beef calf I bottle for three months and then taper them off weaning at 3 1/2 or 4 depending on the calf and how well they are consuming solids. If I had dairy and not a calf destined for the freezer in two years, I'd probably go longer.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15845252729189467819noreply@blogger.com
