If I ever have to pull a calf other than from a first calf heifer we make the tough decision to send her down the road.
Keeping this kind of cow is a recipe for disaster.
I wish you the best.

What minerals do you use? Lack of calcium and selenium will cause muscle Weakness and make delivery hard.

I saw the need help and got very concerned. I hope everything is okay. Myheaven makes a very good point about the minerals. She should be delivering very soon.

I had to call the vet in again. She got the feet out and then she couldn't get anymore out and she couldn't stand either. Vet said that the calf was pinching her nerves. She is standing now and cleaning the calf.

Its a big one. Pictures in a little bit.

Sorry didn't take pictures while I was down there. I had to come back up to pay the vet and so I came on here to say it was born. Forgot to say it was a bull.
