[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 377537, member: 6198"] We are so close to being done. as of 3am 5 to go. Went out to check the cows this morning wouldn't you know it...dead calf. :cry: We have these three bottle fed twins (in the beginniers post) Thought we would graft the youngest (a little over 5 weeks old)on the mommie. You would thing we would have learned our lesson after good friday. Went home for lunch and went back out because... We have to check on a heiffer cause she has been walking around looking for a spot with her tail up for a few hours..no water bag though. We decide to check the heifer to make sure all is well. WELL, we get her into the mat. pen and My husband looks in the barn to see how are grafting is going. :shock: the dumb cow decided to jump over the pannel and get her leg and foot caught in the rungs. Run go find the hack saw and cut the pannel to get the foot out before we have another cow with a broken foot because we decided to graft a calf on her. :oops: :cry: :oops: Not our year. Well the cows leg is abit sore, the heifer checked out soon to be calving, will need help but she has to get down to work and the twin calf, daisy, is so confused i'm not sure if this is worth the effort. The one good thing is the cow with the sore foot is mooing for daisy. You don't want to know how we kinda got this cow thinking this is her calf so quickly. on yeah with the cost of steal so high, we now have a pannel for parts (go figure) cause that's the second time its been flattened, and straightened and cut up because of a cluck. OH WELL who said farming is...the yellow finches have come wow the day [i][u]is[/u][/i] getting better! :nod: [/QUOTE]
