[QUOTE="dun, post: 49251, member: 34"] A little different view. We had an old Hereford cow that prolapsed, we have two of her daughters in the herd with no problems. I think that if you can break the link of the Hereford blood that has the tendncy to prolapse with another breed that you'll probably be ok. We used Red Angus as the break of the linkage. The old girl prolapsed after she calved as a heifer. Conventional wisdom was that if they prolapse before the calve they always will, if after they calve the probably won't. Conventional wisdom didn't work in her case. Her second calve she prolapsed a month before calving. One of her daughters has produced two excellent steers in her two calves, the other has provided us with one of our prospective replacments for her first calf. I'll admit I keep a real jaundiced eye on both of them for any precursor signs that their mother displayed. Both are at 5 months and nothing yet. Their mother would start to swell after 3-4 months. dun [/QUOTE]
