[QUOTE="Shoestring, post: 1732467, member: 41393"] So, I bought a 5 mo. Bred heifer. Yes, I like inexpensive challenges. She had a nice little female calf 2 weeks ago. Now. 2 weeks later, she still has a tendril of whatever, hanging to the ground. I'm not too squeamish, I assisted with 4 childbirths. I get up there today and mucus? Is still hanging. I put on a glove, grab said tendril, and it comes out. I called my local mentor, he says that it's probably good that I could pull it out. No harm, no foul. Boy, PLENTY of nasty stinky discharge. Curly never flinched. Just kept eating. Should I be concerned? Advice? Heifer calf and Curly probably go down the road in April. She is a small Aberdeen looking Angus, and when I was tagging the calf she seems small also. I trust my mentor, but he has been under the weather. Do I keep on keeping on? [/QUOTE]
