go to once a day milk....then when you get towards the bottom of the bag, water it down. this is a beef calf, not a Holstein. baby beef here are on milk at least 12 weeks. then the water down program.
Why does a beef calf need to be on milk longer than a Holstein?
Holsteins are pigs on stilts. quit milk to early on a beef calf, you end up with a pot belly Skelton of a calf.......calves are to valuable to have them turn out as dinks. JMO
