[QUOTE="Beefy, post: 748100, member: 57"] i guess you are asking about a calf jack? it isnt always necessary but a lot of times IS needed. and when it is needed boy is it ever more needed. you dont have to have the cow in a small pen or stall, assuming you can catch her and restrain her someway. like with a rope and tie her to a tree or something. BUT sometimes after you pull one out in the pasture and let her go, she will hightail it and abandon the calf, so its a good idea to have her confined. the calf is best repositioned with a cow in a standing position. the calf may be delivered standing of lying down. alot of times they will go down while you are pulling. (so dont pull in a chute.) [/QUOTE]
