    Hi leg wax hard luck, it could have been dead for a while in there, sometimes the umbolical chord gets wrapped around a leg and cuts off the blood supply and kills the calf. Maybe the cow got a puck or hurt going through a doorway, any number of things really.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    I'm not sure exactly what you mean. The calf was stillborn and full term but doesn't look full term? Is that it?
    We had a very good Blonde cow 2 years ago calve a good bull calf (live) followed an hour later by a three quarter developed one, dead. Hardly anything like this?

    I feel it's significant that you seen this back in July.
