[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 196262, member: 440"] I've seen this before in heifers having trouble with calves too big. My dad had one that he had to tie up twice a day for the calf to nurse-it took almost four weeks for her to finally accept her calf. She raised it then and did a fine job. She was fine with her next calf. I think sometimes the stress just turns them off-they don't want anything to do with the calf. My question to you is why would you breed a first calf heifer to a Lim bull anyway? Thank God we never have to pull any calves-I got my fill of that crap many moons ago. [/QUOTE]
