[QUOTE="ksmit454, post: 1672549, member: 39792"] About 11 weeks old. She’s still getting 1 bottle AM, 1 bottle PM. And hay morning and night along with a bit of grazing through the day. I bought a bag of starter feed but since she is with the other cow/calf pairs, I have no way to give it to her... I wanted to start weaning soon because she’s getting older, eating well, and I’m almost done with my second $75, 50lb bag of high quality milk replacer. Two things: 1) Do I buy another bag of milk replacer and feed that for a other month? 2) Do I begin weaning? Tips to start weaning? Cut back on amount? Cut back on formula to water ratio (give less formula but same amount of water)? This is my first bottle calf. Thank you! [/QUOTE]
