[QUOTE="braunvieh, post: 632650, member: 6985"] Do you see this as a sign of a calving issue? We had a cow showing what looked like afterbirth after a while trying to calve. Head was back, calf dead, cow saved. Heard that afterbirth showing is a sign of head back. Last night had cow with waterbag out, never broke, never saw feet. After about 90 minutes and no calf (5 year old cow), we got her in, broke water bag and determined a foot was back. Assisted her to get the calf out, with water bag/tissue still above and around calf, we actually pulled it off calf's head and could see it take in air right away. I wonder if it would have suffocated if we hadn't have been there. Both are fine now. When you don't see the calf sac break, do you get worried? [/QUOTE]
