Bottle babies?

I know there are a million different opinions on bottle babies. 
Here is mine:

When we first started raising highland cattle 12 plus years ago we lived in Kansas and started with AHCA registered stock and we did not have any bottle baby cows until we moved to Nebraska and started buying highlands from auctions and basically rescues. When you purchase cattle from auctions, there is a reason they are being sold there 😩. We bought a few that even with proper nutrition were not able to produce milk, so those cows go to butcher. Here in Nebraska, the drought has been hard on our animals, so even though we have had more bottle babies, we believe its not the cows fault in these instances, so we have not culled. When we have a bottle baby we do several things:
1. We make every effort to get the calf on its mother. 
2. We make sure the calf gets collostrum, either milk momma, use some frozen collostrum that we have, or buy powder ( not our first preference). 
3. We then start them on 3, 2-quart bottles a day. We use our own goats milk if we are milking goats at the time, if not we use goats powdered milk and we have not had scours. 
4. We continue to bottle feed until about 4-6 months. 
5. We keep hay, grain, mineral, and protein tubs in with them so they can start eating when they are ready. 
We like to make sure they have the best start possible and i believe they are just as healthy as dam raised. We do not prefer it, but when necessary we will bottle feed.  
Photo for attention only this is not a bottle baby!!!
