    Lads/Lassies....I have a month old bull calf that I'm hand rearing and the last of couple of days when he's drinking (from bottle) I noticed him very caught up in the throat...when he has about 2 litres drank he struggles to drink any more and starts coughing a bit. Otherwise he seems fine but wondering if it could be leading up to anything more serious? Any ideas?

    Take him to heuston station:pac:

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    He does seem to gulp down the milk and I was wondering myself too if that was the problem. Changed setting to reduce/slow down the flow but this didn't seem to make a difference. No temp either.

    Would your first port of call be your own local mart where you know the manager and get a foot in the door in that way.
    If you get in one Mart I would think it may make it easier to pitch the idea to other Mart managers?

    No. Your slightly mixed up. There's no drinking today. Plenty of mass. There's nothing wrong with a good mass

    I went to a particularly good one about 10 years ago on good Friday. I spent it bating Jesus round the church and then nearly broke the cross on the altar because I was told to give it a good bang when putting it up (Probably to wake anybody nodding off). The cross member finished up lopsided. They had it fixed by the next night.

    There'll be no rush on her. She knows you won't be gone to the pub if she leaves you alone.

    If you're using fine bone China, put the milk in the cup first.
    If you're making it in a mug, lash everything in at the one time! :-)
