[QUOTE="dun, post: 897760, member: 34"] The last time we had a problem was very similar. After a really hard pull (110 lb heifer out of a small framed heifer) As soon as the cow could she hauled butt away from the calf to the lower pasture. We bedded the calf in some straw and figured we would bottle or tube it as needed. After thawing the colostrum I went down and the calf was nowhere to be seen. Went looking and found it tucked back in the trees, all well fed and happy with momma standing serious guard. 5 more calves from her and never had to touch a one of them. Good thing too cause you couldn;t get within shouting distance of her or her callf for the first week. [/QUOTE]
