[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1226830, member: 19683"] Finally after two unsuccessful heifers calvings we've new alive calves this year. Had two heifers calved in January, but both had dead heifer calves. Both heifers are around 1300lbs. One had 112lbs calf, ~285days gestation, found the half of the calf stuck, but already dead. The second had 111lbs calf, 288days gestation, I have pulled the calf in ~25minutes, but it was too slow and calf died during calving, also heifer's uterus has fallen out and it was 10.40pm. Now both heifers are in the herd again and hope that they'll get incalf soon. Now about the new alive calves: one is a heifer(the black one), 98lbs BW, out of 1/2Angus, 1/4Salers, 1/4dairy cow, very easy calving. The second(the red)is a bull calf, BW is ~98-100lbs, out of Angusxdairy cow, which is the dam of the first cow, very easy calving too.

They are a bit smaller and one is out of BBxdairy cow, which sometimes has a bit harder calving if calf is over 110lbs. [/QUOTE]
