[QUOTE="slick4591, post: 843496, member: 16503"] No need for formalities here. You can just call me Slick. Yes, I am new to the cattle biz, but believe me, I accept the fact that I waited too long. I should have hit her with lute the day I unloaded her. Like I said in my first post the light went on about two or three weeks prior and that was because of her size, not because she was bagging up. Her bag size had increased a little, but not nearly as large as I would expect one in milk would get. Either my brother or I check our cattle daily and there was nothing to indicate she was in labor the evening before. I found her around noon the next day. This heifer walked into the trailer and took a ride to the vet while still alive, unloaded and walked in the chute alive and that's when she was turned over to the professionals. They decided on a pull and things went to he77 in a handbasket from there. I guess I could have told them that I insisted they do a C-section from the start, but I pay them good money for their knowledge and experience, so it was their call. And, yes, I agree with you. Shyyt does happen. [/QUOTE]
