[QUOTE="stocky, post: 90709, member: 1150"] I, also have had my share of vaginal prolapses over the years. It seems to me that if they prolapse at some point after freshening, they will prolapse again before they freshen next time. When that happens, I put it back in and tie it with vet twine that is made to break when they calve. Unless one really pushes hard, it will stay until she tries to calve and then break on it's own. When the calf reaches 5 or 600 lbs the calf is sold as a feeder and the cow is sold for slaughter. If a cow prolapses a few weeks after freshening, be careful about putting her in a pasture with a bull after she has been tied up----it is possible for her to come into heat and the bull break himself while trying to breed her with her tied up---can ruin a good bull---prolapses are asking for trouble if you keep them [/QUOTE]
