[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1367071, member: 22072"] Funny thing about the stillborn calves. If they are not broken open, sometimes the smell is slight. But once broken open, its a different story. We had to pull a backwards dead calf. I did not smell it at first, but when the limbs started coming off as we tried to get it out, PUUUUU..and that smell stuck to us like no other smell. SO unless you broke open the calf, or stuck your nose right to it, its not going to smell ripe from standing distance right away... We took a cow with a dead calf inside. I dont remember the circumstances as to why and how we knew it was dead...but i took her to the vet. I walked in and said...."I'm sorry." lol.....was told that it was about the smelliest ever for that vet. [/QUOTE]
