[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1672215, member: 38038"] sorry for the lose of your calf. if the cow was laying down in the same spot where the calf was born, you should be able to tell if it was born front first and position of legs. If the calf is on the smaller side, it may have been backwards and cord pinched off during the delivery. others may give you more insight to determine if calf was dead before birth. I have had calves born that had been dead in the uterus and fluid had a definite bad smell. have also had calves born that the water sack covered the nose and calf could not get air. the cow may have licked that off and gotten rid of the evidence. hope you get more useful info and find the cause.
