[QUOTE="Rosielou, post: 1210791, member: 17488"] I'm very sad to say we did lose the old herf cross I posted earlier due to one of my worst fears: a really large backwards calf. Even if it wasn't backwards, it would have to have been pulled anyway. I was out of town for holiday, too, so I wasn't there for any of it. Really sucks because it's a big hit since my herd isn't that big and because she raised great calves. I think shouldn't be as attached to them as I am :oops: I also have 2 of my heifers are going to calve soon so I'm staying pretty on edge since I have already lost a cow. On the brightside I did get reassurance that it was not the new bull's fault as I watched one calve Friday. I bought her as a 2 year old for $800, and so far, despite being my ugliest cow, she's done me well. :lol: I am pretty positive she is a longhorn cross, despite being polled. This is the first solid black calf she has dropped so far. DOB 1/09/15 [img]https://38.media.tumblr.com/714f77255b002e600711612037c9bc28/tumblr_nhxjpd3Mtp1rdftrko2_1280.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
