[QUOTE="Ky cowboy, post: 1388708, member: 23904"] Bought a reg Angus heifer last year had her ai'd to low birth weight Angus for an early February calf. Was putting out hay today and found a bull calf dead out past the rings. We were going to put her and a few more heifers we were going to so this spring up in the barn this week wasn't expecting her to go over a month early. Calf was fully developed but only weighed probably 35lbs, makes me wonder if I had her up in the dry if of the little thing would of made it. Now for the question what am I doing wrong, 2 dead calfs 2 different farms different bulls both born early and small. On another farm I lease the cows run pretty much untouched just wormer and on the other two home places I try to do things right (?) And i have better luck on the lease farm hardly ever loose a calf. And to top it off my 5 year old son has been counting down the days till she had her calf. Is there any vaccinations I should be giving to them to try and get them to carry full term.
