Well I had pretty much gotten over my tubing mishad-result dead calf till today. Its sopping wet here after 4 inches of wet snow and an inch of Rain. Im down to my last 4 stragglers calving in the 64 day calving season. 10 year old cow patiently waited till after the storm to calve with a very nice bull calf. I thought it was a bit wet so gave it and the 5 other pairs in the pen a bale of straw for comfort. came back grom church to find said calf flat out dead with a cow sized footprint on its chest :evil: :evil: . I have never had a calf stepped on, so now I can take that one off my list of ways a calf can die. Pretty bummed out for now but I guess its all part of this business. Im now down to 97% live births. I hope the last 3 fare better .
