Hey guys, I have a question for you..
We had a calf born last night. We saw the cow calf from our house, calf was up and nursing in 30 min. max. We never walked down to actually inspect the situation cause things looked pretty good and it was almost dark. This morning my hubby called me here at work and said it looks like the calf's intestines are coming out of its navel. I have heard of this before but we have never had one. Do any of you know whats going on? I haven't seen the situation to give you more details. I can tell you the calf is 1/2 Angus 1/4 Red Angus and 1/4 Brown Swiss so No TH or PHA obviously. She was bred clean up so I don't know if the calf was early or not. Base on reheats from when we AI'd the cow would be due on 4/27 if she cycled every 21 days. Hubby said the calf wasn't looking too good this morning too. Suppose he is a goner? He is calling the vet too, just curious if any of you have dealt with this before and what your outcomes were.
Thanks for the help
