I multi suckle my herd. A little bit more work at first and sometimes a bit more management required but it works for me.
Here is a case of a bit more management needed. I don’t mind calves sharing cows as long as they’re the same age group. The two big fatties here are a little too old to be fair competition though! So off the cow goes to the summer pasture while the other cow and her fatso calves stay at home.

As problems go it’s an easy fix.
