[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 227493, member: 539"] My mistake, sorry! :lol: :lol: It sure looks like a bath tub in the picture. :oops: As far as the calf goes, I'm thinking it's just the luck of the draw. The first thing one should expect when one gets into the cattle business is the unexpected - you already know this. We bought back 8 head of bred cattle that had been sold a year or more ago (newbie owner who put them in a pasture with an electric fence without fence training them, and got tired of chasing them down), one of them is a 3 year old that subsequently had twins (heifer approx 60 pounds, bull approx 90 pounds and had to be pulled), the bull died because he was hugh, backwards, the second calf out of a tired momma, and had a problem with his neck due to the cramped space. Is that the fault of the previous owner? I don't think so, it's just one of those things that happens with cattle. I know this is not what you want to hear, but it is what I believe. [/QUOTE]
