The cow calved yesterday with twins, Both were born dead. The vet checked last week and said they would be ok for delivery. How can this be true if they are moving around and can get tangled up. She began labor at about 8 Am yesterday so I thought I would let her progress. By four, there was no progress so I called the vet to check. I probably should have followed my gut instinct and called first thing in the morning. I guess its better to be safe than sorry. What are the chances of twins being born unassisted? Please advise.
