[QUOTE="Findleyfarms, post: 485206, member: 7548"] Thanks for the reply's. After finding this calf in the early morning light I just walked back to the house. I've just got in from having a better look. The mom is still standing watch over it (poor cow!). Looking at the feet I would guess it did stand up and therefore it was alive. I'm going to say it was born in the worst possible place, on the ice in the wind and didn't have a hope born at night out there. It was a female. It appears to have been well licked around the head and so I will not place any blame on the poor mom. Although she could have picked any on the numerous straw piles, the barn, or shelters to have given birth...murphy's law. [/QUOTE]
