    Cole and Brian, apologies if you know this already. In horse breeding a foal can sometimes be born too fast, or the brain doesn't quite kick in that they are born. They are known as dummy foals and have similar appearance to your calf. Some vets devised a system of ropes, which basically you put around the foal, then squeeze down them from head to tail, giving the foal the feeling of being born. That has had a good outcome for setting off the hormones needed and a very good recovery for the foal. I have no idea if it works with calves. If you are interested, you can search the Madigan foal squeeze technique on you tube. I hope the calf is ok.

    We. had a calf like that this year. Just no energy at all. (had some last year also). Tried colostrom, getting it up, things all farmers try. Called vet. No one around. Finally was going to put in warmer for the night. Vet called, took it to vet, he loaded it up with lots of stuff. Said it was low on selenium.( Last years calf also). took it home and put in warmer for the night. Next day he was 100% better. He is a big calf so legs are curved but he's up and around and living. Gonna put out selenium blocks before they calve from now on. It takes about 3 months to get into system of cows so they both benifit.

    Brian, we've always had a nurse cow, actually the most coveted cow on the farm by neighboring cattle guys. Do you also use nurse cows as well?

    Hey Cole and Bryan, the next time you have a healthy newborn that isnt as lively as it should be, the madigan squeeze is worth a shot. Ive never personally done it but ive heard of it saving a lot of headache with newborns

    I would like you to visit 10th generation dairyman when he gets the new robot feeder going.
    I would also like Brian to pick “I keep forgettin” as the song of the day. Everyone loves some Michael MacDonald
