[QUOTE="Putangitangi, post: 451920, member: 5956"] I've had a head presentation only, but the calf was already dead. A couple have got jammed with a foot turned back at the fetlock, hooking it up on the way out. Three weeks ago I had a calf which was turned around and coming out almost upside-down. Had to get the vet to help with that one, mostly because I don't keep any chains and pulleys on hand, since most assisted calvings are those I'd rather have help with anyway, like the backward ones. We can generally get a vet within half an hour, so we rest on that luxury. Only a dozen left to calve this season and hopefully they're all the right way up and round and nice and slim and just pop themselves out! :D [/QUOTE]
