I am a young cowboy and calve cows in the fall. I have had pretty good luck, it seems this year already i am having a streak of bad luck calving. I lost another calf this morning and immediately took the calf away and skinned it and got another calf from a beef calf raiser. The mother has taken to it right away, the calf is slower to wanting to nurse and even bottle feed now. How long should I keep the skinned hide on the new calf in this warm Idaho weather when the mom seems to take to the calf. I am thinking about taking it off tomorrow mid day.
As a young cowboy i feel a large weight of responsibilty and pride in asking for help, even with my fellow neighbors always thinking "he wil fail" so I never ask for help and feel I might get some here without feeling so humiliated.
