[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 624012, member: 968"] But, I think that article is a little misleading. All the articles I have read basicly say EARLY assisted heifers have the same results as non-assisted. You can't compare a heifer that has struggled for a long time and THAN got assistance. It has been proven that she will take longer to breed back & the calf has a lower survival rate. And the same is true for a HARD calving - earlier assistance is better, but they still will probably have problems. [/QUOTE]
