[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 561455, member: 1604"] Sometimes you have to make do with what you have on hand. A few years ago, a neighbor called me from his pasture for calving help. Turned out the calf's head was turned back and we could not get it forward. The cow was almost done for......................she was worn out and had quit. I hooked my 12,000 lb wench hook to the calf and pulled it out with the head turned wrong. While getting it out you could hear bones breaking but we didn't want to lose both the cow and calf. Long story short, the calf was dead but the cow got up a couple of hours later and raised an orphan calf. [/QUOTE]
