[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1131740, member: 9096"] We've tried that, all it does is make them scared of you, and calving time is going to be more of a pain! What I did this year was kept most of the herd in the field until they were close to calving, then brought them in.. didn't manage to get all of them up in time, so I ended up carrying a bunch of them up. The cows on my cull list for vaginal prolapse have been doing it for a number of years, and I'll say they certainly weren't worse this year, possibly better, though I didn't look at them quite as closely when they were laying down. In the case of vaginal prolapse, I'm quite certain the root cause is missing or weak ligaments that hold everything in place, it's been far too hereditary here. Meanwhile I have other cows that got so flabby before calving you'd swear they were candidates for it, but they'd have a huge 140 lb calf with no trouble before or after. [/QUOTE]
