[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1338118, member: 24027"] Swollen head indicates the calf had been in the birth canal too long & suffocated. I feel your pain as far as when to intervene with an older cow; been there and I'm sorry for your loss. We had a hard pull on a heifer last week that included a dead calf, heifer down with nerve damage & a retained placenta. Still has contracted tendons on one leg, Lute didn't expel the RA, mega doses of penicillin & the vet cleaned her out/gave her a uterine infusion this morning. Talk about a smell! There goes my appetite the rest of the day =(. [/QUOTE]
