[QUOTE="john250, post: 262280, member: 4406"] I was called to look at a friends' cow while he was out of town. 10 yr old Maine-Anjou. She was calving, but fine for now. About 10 pm she delivered a 100+ lb bull calf. Next morning, another call. Calf is lethargic. It is about 95 F. Sunny. I dumped 5 gal bucket of water on the little guy. Put a little fly spray on him. Watched him nurse. He's fine. I lose my fair share. I don't spend 1000 to save 600, but I spend plenty, it seems. Still, every additional calf after you cover expenses goes straight to the bottom line. So you gotta try pretty hard to save 'em. [/QUOTE]
