[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1682838, member: 39373"] So I lost a calf. Cows and calves have been hanging out in the barn. One calf managed to get stepped on. I saw him down there by himself, and thought it was odd, so went to check on him. Had to put him down. Upon butchering said calf, we found a large area on his right side that has clotted up pretty bad. Calf was 6 weeks old. Made some roasts and whole filet and strips. (Tiny of coarse) Anyway... I skinned him and penned mama. Was going to graft a bottle calf I have. Shes never been penned up really. This is her 2nd calf. Raised a good one last year and this one wouldve been a better one. She tore the pen up. I dont have a great pen. Basically just a bunch of panels made into a round pen. Good enough for reasonable cows. Lol I don't think I want to fight her. I could possibly load her up and take to a friends with a better pen and try to graft. But that's a good amount of work on a tight schedule this time of year. Anyways.. should I give her another chance? Pretty mad about it right now and I figure I better think on it. [/QUOTE]
