One area that I believe in strongly is the use of a tube feeder. If a calf is cold or getting chilled or even slow I try to get the cow up and milk out and get milk in the calf soon. The mothers milk is like a miracle drug and with it the calf will be on its way. I have the bought colostrum and use it in a have to case but it doesnt even come close to the mothers milk.
