[QUOTE="redangus, post: 182613, member: 427"] I had a heifer give birth to a young 64lbs female in the snow the other day with a temp at 24 and windy. The heifer had some ice in it's lumped up, wet hair. She was still wet and laying down. The momma was laying down beside her and didn't do a very good job of cleaning her up. I didn't know if she had ate yet or not. I got the little girl in my truck for about 20 minutes with the heat on high. I massaged her with a towell and dried her off pretty good. She got out and sucked her momma dry. How cold is too cold for calving? How cold is too cold for calving when the mommas don't clean'em off good? [/QUOTE]
