We are keeping both of them. Buttercup was our milk cow's baby but she died of milk fever. Buttercup's mother, Betsy was our family milk cow so it was really sad when she died.

It worked out pretty good because now Buttercup has a friend!! Dolly is so sweet! You should have seen me trying to feed them both this morning!!! LOL I was trying to feed Dolly bit Buttercup had other ideas. She was licking the bottle and raming Dolly in the side and trying to eat my hand all at the same time! So then I fed them both at the same time ... don't try this at home!!! LOL

Believe me I know, everytime I'm in the yard I have someone sucking on my elbows, knees, hands, whatever she can reach,

Don't have any other calves, but I do have 4 goats still on bottles, and she likes to try and share (and she can and will suck on their little bottles). I had that solved for awhile by feeding the goats on the porch, but...

Thank you! I kind of like her! I would love to have another heifer as a companion for her, it would be good for her to know she's a cow and not a goat.
