[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1767964, member: 24027"] I don't think you need to check for another. Most likely, she was trying to expel the afterbirth when you saw her looking & mooing. Calf is definitely cleaned off. Have you seen it nurse? That's the next hurdle. If the calf has already nursed and you missed it, check the heifers teats. At least a couple should be clean & shiny. Stick your finger in the calf's mouth. If it latches on, it's hungry and needs to nurse. [/QUOTE]
