Yeah, if you haven't see a calf nursing don't ever assume they are. If they're weak sometime you need to get them started, especially if it's a first calf heifer - sometimes you in that case if there's even small problems you got to teach them both. Tie up the cow, and work on getting the calf the right idea as M Nut said. It can be a pain, but they'll both catch on in a day or so as the cows milk works its way through the calf. Once the calf gets the strength to start nursing ok, things will generally improve in a hurry.
