bottle calves will need tending every 3-4 hours just like a baby.after they start eating on their own checking them twice a day is ok, keep hay out of course.mainest thing you want to watch for is scours,the younger the calf the faster it will die.after they are eating good on heir own put them out to pasture.What i figure is one cow,or cow/calf ,to every ten acres to keep them year round ( my area).if you dont have that,you can get by with less by keeping them a shorter time, or if have really good grass,and /or supplemental feed.if you only have a real small place,and these were bottle calves,i would have them at the sale barn the instant they started eating good on their own. heres an idea,pick them up on the day the sale barn closest to you is open ,dont even go by the house take them straight there. ever hear of the words free money?
