[QUOTE="Beefy, post: 125036, member: 57"] my guess is that the calf was weak to begin with or not all there. assuming she has raised calves before,and she should have since shes 4, she would most likely return if she was just hiding the calf or letting it rest. she probably couldnt get it to travel with her and left to rejoin the herd. she may have been returning undetected (like at night or something) and you just didnt notice. if it was too weak to stand, i would suspect problems with the calf lead the cow to abandon it assuming she mothered her others well. If you will put some pour-on dewormer on your cows it will keep the flies away for a good while. [/QUOTE]
