[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 1122364, member: 5106"] His head is not swollen he is just big , he was 168 lbs at birth . [b]No Miss Keen is not a pet [/b]but how calm my cattle are one can easily think that, especially if you raise wild cattle apparently like yourself . She is a real ranch cow and is only handled when/if I get to AI her in the spring and (herd health) preg check and vaccinate in the fall . We have a pretty good set up as I am pretty much the only person here to handle them day to day and it helps if they like you . ;-) If you do not believe that I run a real live ranch and not a pet farm just ask a few folks on here that I have had the privilege of them making the long trip to come and visit me and my herd . The baler twine "string" was already explained in a few posts earlier, this calf was grafted onto the cow via the graft of her original calf . Thanks for the suggestions on breed selection but I will stick with my breed of choice as I already stated this was a very freak thing and the cow would have had the calf on her own , but given the weather I thought it best to intervene . Btw if you calved here in Feb/March while feeding 2 months in -40 weather your BW would not be 60 lbs . [/QUOTE]
