[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 396877, member: 968"] Thanks for all the nice comments. It's just "one of those things" but sure is hard to swallow. We're in the process of getting the site ready to put up our new barn - so everything is torn apart. Fencing is down & we've been "re-routing" the source of "hot" supply. Fence between fields was not hot. They had plenty to eat, but you know - it's always better on other side. Other calves had slipped under the fence & she must have decided to jump it. We mostly use the step in plastic posts. This was a "permanent" hi-tensile division fence, single strand, with all steel posts. She did bend the post, it must have just "slid" across her bellie as she went over - slicing it as neat as I would gutting a deer. Just cut through the two layers, not cutting open the inners. I think it happened maybe 10-15 minutes before I got there. $hit happens! but to be that unicque an accident and to my best - yuk! We're having heart & liver tonight! (that's usually our "victory" dinner after a deer kill) [/QUOTE]
