[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1434706, member: 20580"] Did you get the vet to examine her after she slipped the calf? Never hurts to play it safe if you are retaining her and have her examined just to make sure she fully cleaned and check to make sure the reproductive organs seem normal. We had a 10 year old cow this year we suspected had slipped a calf about 2 or 3 months before she was due as she had some discharge and was acting strange so we had the vet out that confirmed our suspicion. While she didn't have anything hanging out she hadn't fully cleaned so glad we had her checked out before she may have developed an infection. Found the dead calf a day or 2 later, wasn't much bigger than a small dog. Synced the cow up with our AI group this year and she appears to have settled to the AI service so chalked it up as maybe she got bumped too hard by another cow in the winter lot or something as she's never had an issue for us before.
