I am just getting into raising beef cattle this year. I bought 4 bred cows from the sale barn ( 2 in march late 2nd stage, and 2 in may 3rd stage). I didn't give them any shots an am pasture raising them. Yesterday 1 had a calf and was dead. Then this morning a second one had a dead calf (I think pre-mature because there was no hair on it). Both calves were the ones i bought in March. Does anyone have any advice or insight to what, if anything, I am doing wrong? Could this be normal? Also should i get rid of the cows, and do i need to do anything for the ones that lost the calves?
Thanks I need some advice.
