[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 13646"] I'll take a guess at this. I will assume that you mean the calf was LARGE for a newborn. If it was over 50#, a 600# cow would have had a very difficult time calving. Evidently you were not around during calving, so she probably needed help, and the calf died during delivery. I would consider getting larger cows or using miniature bulls. You must have known this was a potential problem, or you would not have mentioned that the cow was 600# & the bull was 1800#.
