[QUOTE="mom to 4, post: 1704031, member: 5790"] Lee VanRoss, you make a good point, however regarding the mothering instinct of the heifer, (and I say this from personal experience) she may have known exactly where the calf was all along and been tending to it when no one was around. I've seen that they tend to keep them hidden when they sense something is wrong with the calf. One exception we had was with one of the first fly strikes we ever experienced. A new calf that never had interaction with a person literally came running up to me bawling like he was asking for help! and of course he got it :) [/QUOTE]
