[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1403500, member: 968"] LuckyP is completely correct. You should NEVER hang a calf or swing it upside down. That is an old wife's tale and it causes more damage than good. I think your problem was back at breeding time. Sounds like an Angus genetic defect. And I strongly advise against taking in a calf from another farm. If you have a "spare" twin, that by all means, try to splice it on your momma. A healthy calf from another location can cause all your current & future calves to be sick. Never mix "bugs" from farm to farm. [/QUOTE]
