Holy Crapamoly! Yours? We delivered a live 225# Holstein once... but it was terrible hard on the momma. Looks like this girl did just fine! Seems like an awful lot of blood!

Took an extra big zipper in the side of the cow to get that one out. Wow

No. The Hillsboro Animal Clinic posted it on their FB page.; They said the vet set it down, and started working on the uterus and the calf stood up!

C-section

Stupid question, if a cow has a c section can she deliver normally the next calf ?

Yes.

Unless the next one is also 170#. Probably need to look for a guilty party - cow, bull or owner/environment. I would not want a repeat.

They all look good, but must be worn out. Including the vet and staff.

Hmm delivered 1/2 grown, better make a butcher appointment soon.

That vet's smile says it was worth the trouble tho..
