Terrible day to calve here today - wind and freezing rain. Got momma cow up in the barn with "granny" a couple days before calving and put her in the barn when her water broke - then she wouldn't let go. Hate that about the barn - they seem to stop labor somehow to the point where she wasn't even contracting any more. After about 5 hours of nothing happening, I got sleeved up and found her heifer calf - in proper position - waaaaaaay down below the pelvis - snug as a bug in a . . . uterus. Tied a rope to her and pulled her out. Calf and momma doing great. Happens frequently when I try to calve in the barn though. They seem to have a terrible time settling down to just lay down and calve. :bang:
