[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1806591, member: 39373"] If I had it to do over again, I'd have taken her to Stillwater. OSU veterinarians. I do understand any vet can make a mistake. I did not even call them today. I'm afraid I'd say some things I don't really mean! 😕 The calf was still alive when he checked her last Thursday. My opinion is she was hot because she had been in labor for 2 days! Temps were 90's last week too. Hindsight and all that... Calf was still alive at time of diagnosis. He told me she would calve within a couple weeks. I knew the exact day she was bred. She was right on time for calving. Had I insisted on a c-section, at least one of em would still be alive and he might've learned something in the process. Like @buckrandall said, most folks don't catch it early enough and wonder why they have a dead cow in their pasture. And they never know. Around here a case like this 8s quite rare. Even the vet I spoke with last night at OSU said it certainly was a possibility but they hardly ever see it too. I do understand everyone makes a mistake. I should have been more clear I guess about what I "expected" from the vet [/QUOTE]
