[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 109949, member: 539"] Sounds to me like she is right on schedule to deliver about the end of August, maybe the first of September. How young is young? Sounds like she will be calving as a yearling, not a good situation, but, at this stage of the game not sure what you are going to do about it - the calf is almost full term, to abort now would still require delivery for the mother. I have also heard that 'hot' feed (high amounts of grain normally used in feed lots for finishing) can cause liver damage in the calf, but have never seen this so I'm not sure. [/QUOTE]
