I pulled a calf from a heifer two weeks ago.
The heifer cleaned - at least I thought she did - but she is still having some bloody discharge on her tail. I found what I thought was the sac around the placenta in the pen about 12 hours after calving, but it didn't seem to be as full as other placentas I have seen.
She is not off feed and is nursing the calf fine. She doesn't show any outward signs of illness.
Is this something to be concerned about?
