[QUOTE="CowgirlUpNY, post: 907669, member: 4092"] I know, it's totally corny! But I'm just on cloud 9 that after all this time, I finally was able to catch a birth from water bag to calf. :D My husband thinks I'm crazy, but oh well. We had two in the barn, separated out for butchering - that's why we bought them, to turn them around. Anyway, one started bagging up and next thing I know.... calf. (I posted about this in another thread) Well, the other one in there with her, I told my husband, she's pregnant too. Sure enough, I went into the hay loft to bring down hay for them and heard "the" moo -- I don't know why I knew that it was her in labor, and not the other mother talking to her calf. By the time I got down from the mow, and turned the lights on, I saw her water bag. I loaded up with a few extra wheel barrows of shavings, put my stool in the corner and just watched. Within 25 minutes it was all done. :clap: :clap: I know totally corny. His name is James. He'll be someones dinner in 2 years. :lol2: [/QUOTE]
