I"ve got one old cow that is some combination of Angus and Jersey called Bonnie. She was previously milked and is about as dosile as they come. A few years ago, I lost a Charlais cow and started bottle feeding the calf. Bonnie eventually had her calf on the same day as red Limousin Heifer. The heifer rejected her calf for some reason so Bonnie started nursing both calves on her own. I put her in the barn with the Charlais calf and she accepted all three calves. Quite a site seeing a cow with three calves one black, one red, and one white. Raised them all up real well too.
Generally though it"s possible to get most cows to accept an orphan, it just takes a lot of work in the headgate and hand milking. My dad always put some of the cows urine on the calf, which may have helped, but the effects are definitely not immediate.
