[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1806639, member: 42463"] I had a heifer separate herself from the herd and after two days I found her with the calf hooves out and turned to the sky. So breach and already dead. I took her in to the vet and he did a c-section and saved the heifer. $160... which I was surprised was so cheap. Probably because I brought her in instead of doing it in the field. And I've had c-sections done in the field and the cows died. The calf in the heifer had been dead for a while, long enough to swell up and the hair was coming off. Pretty amazing that the heifer lived, IMO. She never bred so she made some of the best freezer beef I've had about nine months later. I was expecting to find scar tissue but there was nothing I could see. [/QUOTE]
