[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 16156"] Have a headcatch, OB Chain, Calf puller. The heifer will have the water out first, if after 1 hour the water bag doesn't break and feet aren't present you should arm her and identify the problem, if the top of the hooves are pointed down, the calf is backwards and you will have to pull it, if it's to big you will need to have it c sectioned. If there is only one leg present it has a leg back, in this case you will have to push the calf back into the cow and pull the leg up. A head could also be back and the calf will need to be pushed back in and the head freed. Heifers should not be given more than 3 hours without assistance after the water bag is present and she is not progressing. Some will tell you to wait longer but they usually are the ones that "let nature take it's course". [email=kidroff@hotmail.com]kidroff@hotmail.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
