[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1330529, member: 22072"] I graft 3+ calves a year onto commercial cows and other than one time on a cow weeks after she lost her calf, it always works without skinning the dead calf. I know people do it but you don't have to do it. Most cases it looks hopeless in the beginning. I've had a few cases the cow took it right away and I've had cases it took weeks. Pet cows are the easiest. Sometimes the broncy ones are easier than expected. But I do know you do not need to put the skin over the calf. [/QUOTE]
