Thanks Dick, but I fully understand how the dairy business works. I've started hundreds of calves in group pens using large self feeders and never had trouble spotting a calf having troubles, so you can ease up on the condescending tone. The self feeders make the calf work for the feed more and the increased sucking action stimulates the bacteria in their gut, decreasing the amount of scours I saw. Sick calves and poor doers are separated out and treated accordingly. I made a snap comment to your pic, perhaps I should have kept my thoughts to myself, but if I ever went back to starting calves, I would never have calves in individual pens with individual buckets that need filled twice a day.
