[QUOTE="bandit80, post: 520952, member: 7956"] Anytime you have a true breech like that, it is hard to save the calf. I always feel fortunate saving a breech. Had one last year like you, cow not trying to push, but holding tail off to side. That calf was dead, and had been dead for a day or two. First calf heifer this year, knew she went into labor around 3am, and nothing by 5am. Got her in the chute and tail first. Luckily, had a live calf out by 530. Sometimes you get lucky, others not so much. [/QUOTE]
