    Are Pelvic Checks a must

    I think it's a good idea.. just one more tool in the toolbox That said, when we first started out and bought our first group of 12 heifers, they were all measured, and that year was an absolute disaster with calving. I've never done it but wanted to. Like TC ranch, I've had some lines of cows...

    dehydrated calf

    My first guess would be pneumonia/shipping fever.. First thing if it isn't a call to a vet is to get her temp, because that will be the first thing your vet will ask for,...

    Cow won’t quit pushing

    sounds like my adventure a few years back.. I had no supplies to take care of it properly.. sharpened up a tire plug insert tool best I could, found some linen sail string and quadrupled it up and used that.. no lidocaine or anything.. Shot of LA200 and she was fine after... we were both pretty...

    Big baby girl!

    yeah, usually the feet are there when the water breaks, especially if she's laying down and pushing.. I think she could probably have had it on her own, but would have been hard on both. I had a heifer calf born the day before, she's probably around 75 lbs and she just looks tiny in comparison...

    One of my best, old cows calved yesterday.. saw her thinking about it at noon, some contractions and the water broke at 3, didn't see feet so decided to grab the chains and go see what's up.. Big calf, a bit of manual pulling got her out in a timely fashion, Very cooperative cow, got right up...

    That's a cheap shot when we had tons of leaded gasoline, lead pipes, etc for the last 100 years

    Beef cattle Phenotype

    Environment doesn't change DNA, it activates/deactivates some genes more than others A lot of that is because of improved, or changed standards and moving the goalpost of what is considered autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety, etc.. There's a TON of adults with undiagnosed conditions that they've...
