[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 334066, member: 4353"] I had one of my best heifers abort this afternoon. No indication of anything wrong this afternoon. Saw her at 17:00 and she was alone and standing with her tail in the air as if she was about to calve. Checked on her just now and found a normal bull calf aborted. She was due first week in May. As always its one of my best heifers, AI bred to a very good bull and to top it all I really wanted a bull calf out of her. Any ideas on why, except that she maybe got a knock from one of the others. What puzzles me more is that she was in that group for months now and there shouldn't have been any more fighting than usual. The heifer is otherwise fine and was licking the calf, she hasn't cleaned yet. I am expecting problems, what do you think? [/QUOTE]
