You done good. Now prop your feet up and have a drink on us. :wink:

You should be proud of yurself...any live calf is always a great feeling..hope the rest of your calving goes smoothly. :wink:

A calf that comes normal and lives is also a gift from God. I prefer them!

 

[jigs]

it seems to be a rule of thumb for me, that if you have to move those back feet, if they are coming backwards, then you will get a dead calf.

you did good!

Any live calf makes you feel good. The tough ones you save feel like a reward for being in the business.

The thing I have noticed is when you save a calf like that, it seems to stand out every time you go to the field. Not that the calf remembers the favour!!!

Good for you, rowel.
