NC Kansas | ^^this... if the calf is healthy/normal and it wasn’t a stressful birth, and the mom knows what it’s doing, 9 out of 10 times the calf will get up and go. A little bedding and protection from the wind they’ll be fine. Once it’s bonded well maybe even sucked once I’ll throw it on the floorboard with the heat on high they hit the ground running after that.
Had a couple dummies this year that we’ve brought around by tubing/warming several times and helping them suck... cold weather seems to accentuate the level dumbness in a dummy.
