last night hiefer had a still born. 3 hr labor. went well. she was calm. penned by herself on 5 acre past. saw the calf kickin a few days ago. dropped last nite under a full moon.
the umbilical cord looked like it was ripped from the navel. it was actually gone and the navel was a hole. wasnt bleeding or anything and when we got there the hiefer just got up and slowly wandered about 20 ft away and waited til we hauled it off. she seemed okay this mornin . bag passed. didnt see it anywhere so i couldnt tell if the cord was in it.
just kinda sucked...lost a hiefer and the calf this summer and now this calf....when ya only got 10 cows thats a big hit.
