Calves - Week 3

Tbone & Chuck

The beginning of the week didn't start off too well.  Tbone was still having diarrhea.  So off to the vet I went and got some more medication for him.  Thankfully it worked this time.  So now both Tbone & Chuck are having normal poops and hopefully will start gaining the much needed weight they need.

Chuck - Looking skinny

Tbone looking a little better

They have started eating some grass and hay also.

They have lots of energy and like to run around especially after they finish eating their bottles.

Our next step is to get them to eat a little grain.  We have been leaving a little out in 2 buckets with a little of the milk powder sprinkled on top to try to get them to eat it.  Once we get them to eat some grain and learn that it is yummy they will get to go out into the big pasture.

Sweet Chuck, I just love those ears

Check back next week, hopefully they will be eating grain by then.
