[QUOTE="dun, post: 61695, member: 34"] Hiplocked is a situation when the calves hips are just a little too wide to easily slip through the pelvis. If you rotate the calf about 1.4 turn, sometimes as much as 1/2 they'll usually just slip right out. A few years ago we had an old cow that had a hip locked calf. She was standing up and started swingin her butt from side to side and the calf swung like a pendulum. Second or third swing and the calf came flying out. I'm frequently amazed at what a cow will do instinctively. dun [/QUOTE]
