[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 876757, member: 6198"] There is a good chance that if your arm does not twist, that the calf has not positioned itself and either the head is down and twisted back and the feet are down as well. We have had this happen 2x. Once we got the calf out, but the cow never bred back. Second time we decided to take her in to save the cow to breed back. If i remember you are not near a vet right? You need to go deep in..as far as the your shoulders can go and find the sack. If she has been in labor that long, she is in trouble. If the head is back, you will need oxytocin to dilate her as far as she can go. If i remember you are not near a vet right? [/QUOTE]
