[QUOTE="Down in Dixie, post: 1707406, member: 40303"] The pic was within 24 hrs of birth. I’ve been trying to get hay up so can’t spend to much time sitting and watching. The cow still beds down with the herd. She isn’t one of my pet cows and won’t let me touch her. I may try and get her in the chute tomorrow when I get my last steer sorted off and see if her udder is slippery like you said Murray. Haven’t seen any buzzards or coyotes either. We did just get a few days of rain during the time I figured it was just hiding. It was born Tuesday afternoon and last saw it Wednesday afternoon when I took the picture. Started looking for it Saturday with no luck. I’ve been around the house all week so I figured if it was here I would of seen it by now. Guess I’m going to have to call this one another loss. Lost one calf earlier this year that got sick during a bad cold front and momma wouldn’t let me get it into the barn to dry off. Had a cripple calf two months ago that I got to where I think he will be ok to butcher next year. Then this calf. Two dead calves and a cripple calf are devastating on a small herd. Guess I’m 9.5 of 12 calves this year. Lol [/QUOTE]
