[QUOTE="mcdowedd, post: 338869, member: 2416"] We had a heifer calve early this morning - the calf had to be pulled. About 80 lbs. Heifer can't get up - vet thinks the calf was in the birth canal so long that it pinched the heifer's nerves. The heifer is down and won't own the calf. We are trying to get colostrum (we had it frozen) into the calf with a bottle. Question is: is this heifer an animal that should be culled, or do heifers get a break since it's their first time?
