heifer calf born last friday morning... everything normal until yesterday, had a little blood on her rear end yesterday but nothing too bad, this morning was a little more, but this afternoon seemed to be better. I havent been able to catch her actually defacating... but she is confined to a fairly small pen with momma, and I cant find any real bloody stools...
she has been nursing from the get go, and has plenty of energy...
momma still hasnt cleaned up all the way either, still some blood on her rear end... could the two issues be related? Although she is a 1st calf heifer, she shouldnt have torn, the calf was only about 60 lbs....
What do i need to watch for in the next couple of days?
Have had 7 other calves in the past 2 weeks and nothing else like this has shown up...
Thanks for the help
