[QUOTE="farmwriter, post: 712028, member: 10309"] First year we got back in the cow business, my folks were going on a 10 day cattle tour out west, and I had the place to myself. We had 1 heifer that had not calved, and of course she delivered it dead while they were gone. It appeared fully developed but was small. Called a good friend to come help me bury it, cause my hubby was no cow help at the time (he's learning) and I really didn't know if mama cow would try to kill me if I went for her calf. That's not the kind of job I'm willing to do alone when there's not even anybody around to hear me screaming. Short of it is I never knew what happened either. She's had three calves since then, all of which arrived fine. [/QUOTE]
