[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 743006, member: 1682"] Don't keep her, unless you like dirty, thankless work like that. :shock: Doesn't matter how good the cow is, ship it. I had a great Victor 103T daughter do it this fall. Terrific cow. Just what I am aiming for. Pigmented udder, eyes and nose. Big beautiful heifer calf. But after going 1/2 way into shoving back a rectal and vaginal prolapse the 2nd time around, I was ready to go grab the .22 and finish her off in the chute. She is gone in another month and her calf will follow later this year. I think the only people that consider keeping junk like that are the ones that had a vet stitch them back up. Do it yourself, and you won't be quite as keen to relive the experience. :cowboy: Have stitched up a lot of cows over the years, many for other people. When I am done stitching, they usually ask if they should keep her. I just tell them I won't be back to stitch them the 2nd time. :roll: A vaginal prolapse will fall back into the animal, the first few times. BUT....if they continue to do it nearly time they lie down, the entire prolapsed tissue area will become more and more engorged with blood flow and swelling, and, at some point, it will have to be physically pushed back in.
