[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 369845, member: 6198"] hi, we've lifted a cow almost everyday of almost a month. we were trying to get her to term. She would sit like a dog. After a month, and after she had lost some weight eventhough she ate like a pig she stood on her own. Because she stood we felt so bad when we had to put her down when she calved the following week. But she was older that Moses or Noah. We would have sold her sooner but she was a share cow with a real old fella my husband helped out. Didn't have the heart to tell him to get rid of her. Should have taken a picture of her when we skidded her home on a huge piece of metal...sitting like a dog, then laying down, wide eyed snow flying up in her face, snow surfing. things we do for the animals we love! I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you have the time and commitment to work with her daily you could save her. and anti -infamatory like the rest said is a good idea. [/QUOTE]
