tube feeding a calf

[andrews29]

Had to tube feed a calf for the first time this morning. All seemed to go well but im still worried if i did it right being its my first time. Im guessing that if i was in the wind pipe 3 liters would have killed the calf on the spot ? Calf walked out of the barn and went right to mom. Calf didnt cough as i was doing guess im probably worring about nothing

Glad things turned out good!!
There is a whole thread on here about tubing calves and doing
it so there isn't a problem. You'd probably do well to read that.
I know I learned something from it, you might too.
