[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1322235, member: 24816"] For my experience in dealing with hard calving it is a problem. Even if the calf is assisted quickly there is still added stress on both cow and calf. Larger calves are sometimes slower to get up and going. Cows that have had trouble calving can take longer to get rebred. I prefer to use bulls that are either proven calving ease AI sires, or herd bulls that are sired by them. That being said, I have heard of some farms especially dairy farms that don't seem to have issues with pulling calves. [/QUOTE]
