[QUOTE="Pigken, post: 4670728, member: 79558"] Hello has any one any practical solution or idea why calves suck naval and how to prevent it, am talking about bucket reared calves, find some batches none, some batches lots, all come from same farms, iodine seems to stop them for day or two, our 'expert' says its down to salt, but they have access to rock salt from arrival and do not bother with it, why do they suddenly start, we thought mild weather had started the again but then some 4 month old calves started when was minus something, could it be anything to do with atmospheric pressure, water supply, or is it just bad behaviour of a few, can make real mess of them, and not practical to always remove from group, have seen 8 month old calves doing it, any thoughts ideas be appreciated [/QUOTE]
