[QUOTE="Chris H, post: 988744, member: 1974"] The longer you wait, the bigger the chance the calf(s) is dead. We didn't have a breeding date on our cow so we took a chance the calves were alive and had doc do a c-section. He had examined her the day before and advised waiting. The next day she was down and apparently the pre-pubic tendon had ruptured. She had that death look in her eyes, so we knew she had to be put down. Our twins had their teeth erupted and were good size. Unfortunately they were DOA. They had no sign of deterioration so I'm not sure at what point they died. I wish I had known what was going on a few days before all this, we would have chosen to do a c-section when we saw she had a problem. [/QUOTE]
