[QUOTE="ERodrig, post: 413163, member: 2602"] I'm not exactly brand new here, but I am definitely still in the learning stages. Here's my situation. I have a cow that, according to the vet, is going to give birth in the next week or two. With all the rain that we've gotten, and that is still expected, here in central Texas, I haven't been able to build any type of shelter for her and her calf. I have plenty of trees on my property and some areas are pretty dry despite the rain. My question is if you think she might have problems calving in the rain? I know these animals have been around a lot longer than any of us and have been doing fine without us, it's just that this would be the first calf born on my ranch and I want to do everything I can to ensure both survive. Any suggestions or opinions would be greatly apprciated. By the way, I wasn't prepared because the vet originally told me she was open and I thought I had more time. [/QUOTE]
