[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1739231, member: 968"] I was always told a big calf or small heifer was most of the cause of malpresentation. And also told that lack of exercise also could cause it. Lack of cow movement made it harder for the calf to get into position??? Twins are my main backwards calves. We had one set of twins last year or year before? that one calf was coming proper, but a spine was going from side to side in front of the head and over the two legs. The twins were criss-crossed. Nephew had a heck of a time, but got the first one pushed back and got the 2nd one turned around. He saved both!!! He is blessed with ape-like arms (long and slender) and has extremely strong hands. I am blessed to have him!!! [/QUOTE]
