[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 515156, member: 2308"] Thanks everyone for the comments. The twins, I am sure were dead before the cow went into labour. But the upside down one, who knows. We have had a number of them, and this is the first dead one. bward and nrs, I have heard that before, and for the most part I believe it is true. If the calf doesn't do it's part the cow cannot do hers. I have seen too many cows that had malpresentations, especially breech and upside down ones, where the cow never pushed until you got the calf in a birthing position. It is amazing what you can do with a calf inside the uterus. Went to the vet's this morning, to take a couple of cats to get fixed. I had to wait for the vet, who was doing a C-section on a set of tangled up twins. Once he got them out, you wondered how the heck they ever fit in that cow in the first place. They were a big pair, and were both dead. Too bad for the guy that brought her in. It was their 7th set this spring. [/QUOTE]
