I use a BLR .243-the vet said don't do that on uterine prolapses as they aren't hereditary-I said with my method I'm damn sure they aren't. Only had to do it a couple times over the years and I don't think either cow would of made it to the clinic.

Haymaker- well I'm starting to feel like an old nursemaid... I'm paying the price of the high calf prices and keeping some of these old swingbags one more year.....I got 2 of their calves in there now I'm feeding- altho the first one I'm going to turn back out pretty soon- mom finally started providing the little fellow with milk....Hopefully this other one can get started too and raise this one last calf...Looked in the book and she's 14- should have been gone a couple years ago if it wasn't for the Canadians giving us such good calf prices :wink: ........
