Worked on a dairy for years, it took one or two feedings of colostrum to get a gallon in them and they are good to go. I brought home many a wet calf from a cow that calved while I was milking. After 12 hours of life the colostrum is of little value. Pick him up as soon as you can because the longer there at one of those big dairys the higher the chance he's going to catch something. These calves need the same amount of the same type of milk everyday. It doesn't matter what you feed them just keep it the same or your going to get scours, before I knew what I was doing I lost half the calves that came down with scours.
So to recap: Get 1 gal of colostrum ASAP. Feed them the same thing every day at the same time and in the same quantity- this is more important than colostrum.
Dairy meat is not leaner than beef. I believe all the dairy breeds come before the beloved Angus in marbling. Marbling is the fat inside the steak and that is what makes it taste so good.
