[QUOTE="Chris H, post: 285243, member: 1974"] Maybe you saved the one you pulled the sack off, or maybe it would have ripped as the cow got up. Don't know what would have happened if you weren't there, but you do know it's alive now. I've done the same thing as you did. The hip locked calf probably would have popped out when the cow layed down again, and she would have layed down. The calf was breathing, which is good because the umbilical cord would have been clamped shut from the position the calf was in. I'd have been inclined to give the cow a little more time on this one. But you can't knock your outcome, you got a live calf and mom is well, too. [/QUOTE]
