[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1396333, member: 25884"] I was taught early on that you NEVER pull it; the weight of it hanging, yes looking terrible, will naturally cause it to "pull" away from the walls of the uterus, without tearing anything up. Most all the dairies that I milk test for use lute, on about 5th day and then again in a week. Few have any problems after that if the nutrition level is where it needs to be. Can't see where a shot of multi-min would hurt and an antibiotic for infection, but it isn't gonna happen in 24 hours, you need to give it a little time. We don't see one every couple of years, and they usually pass them in 2-3 days, on their own, but if not then they go in the chute and get a shot of lute. [/QUOTE]
