I was watching a cow in labor for some time and decided to bring her in the yard to assist. We ultrasound all of our cows which left us with a surprise at the very end!

Thank you for your kind comment! Child birth is defiantly tough and women can totally relate. Defiantly puts more patience into perspective when dealing with heifers that can be a little kicky at first. Those milk let downs can be painful!

Patti Vlasak she was having problems delivering on her own. I had been watching her for quite some time. She would push and push but nothing would come. She then began trying to claim any calf that walked by her. She was getting tired and not trying anymore. I don’t intervene unless a problem is detected.

One of my favorite TV shows is The Incredible Dr Pol and I always get the impression watching him that one of the most satisfying things for him is to pull a live calf. Although in his case by the time he is called out to the farm the Mama cow is in dire need of assistance. Always love to see the maternal instinct kick in and they know exactly what to do!

Sounds like how human road and railways, truckies etc men delivered babies out in remote rural Australia when there was no way to get mum to hospital and no other women around to help because males outnumbered women in the bush. The men did a great job. They got very good at it. Especially the moral support they gave the woman. Even if they were a bit rough and yelled out comments like "Quick, grab the shovel mate... Scoop bub up before it hits the ground and cracks its skull..." They weren't at all scared of delivering a baby....Just all part of everyday work digging ditches, fixing roads etc.

My dad, (who was my step dad, btw) taught me how to see things through spiritual eyes through the eyes of a farmer. My biological dad, (who was my knight in shining armor) would not have been able to do that. (funny thing now, my step dad and I are cousins). I was about 11y/o, and one evening after they had just got done milkin' cows. Sun was just beginning to fall asleep. We stood there watching the shadows approach the corn growing in the field. And I heard an odd sound. I looked up at my step dad's face and watched a tear stream down his face. And I asked why he was cryin'. He just said, "You work so hard to get the crop in and you wait and wait...Then you finally see evidence of your labor like that." The promises of God are yes and amen. If I had it to do all over again. I'd buy my own farm and be the farmer. I miss the farm life. I miss my old garden. I can at least buy produce from the farm store and can it still. If offered a farm life, I'd take it in a heart beat.

I was catching the school bus home in the country as a school girl when, much to my shock, a cow gave birth in the nearby paddock before my very eyes... She then casually got up and took a drink in the dam and had a few bites of grass. Then went to see to junior, to lick him, greet him etc. But hr was already up and moving and the ying to get to his milk source as she tried to teach him a few manners, like "say please" and "thank you, mum". It is amazing how fast and easily the birth happens and how fast they both recover from such a natural trauma. But it's good to have humans to help if complications arise.

I had two kids, the birthing pain is different than if you for example hurt yourself so bad that tears comes out. Usually there’s no tears of pain, only tears of happiness right after, and women do it again! If the birthing pain was like breaking a leg or someone drilling your root canals then I would consider. It’s just like a huge muscle cramp that increases aching that’s why you just want the baby out, and that aching is so bad that the final thing, when the baby does come out, doesn’t even hurt as much. It’s amazingly made.

I've never seen "calf pulling". I was wondering how the cow's tail swishing about would be handled. Pretty nifty. Just tie it to a post...

Yes but you have to be careful and tie it so it will release if they happen to lay down. Some people tie it to their leg but I didn’t want to risk getting kicked since I’m pregnant myself.

You are amazing at delivery. You understand the process. The men just rip them out never giving the cow relief or waiting for contractions. Great! And now you have two. This kept coming up on my feed and I kept passing it by. Not again, in fact you have a new sub. Thanks! What’s a free Martin? At least that is what my cc said.

I like using the nylon and use it when I can. It cleans up like new every time. Only downfall is it does get really slippery. For easy pulls like this it works fantastic but for the trickier positioned ones I use the chain to avoid slipping off easy. Thanks for watching!

@Rollag Ranches... Don't give up on Twin heifer immediately!! I raised Pinzguaer crossed cattle for years and had 4 sets of twins within four yrs from all different cows and the two Bull /heifer pairs, both heifers were fine, not freemartin. I raised calves from both of them! Other two sets were same sex pairs, one bulls, other heifers! Maybe it's a breed characteristic. Pinzguaer tend to twin a lot. Some crossed with Simmental and original bull in commercial herd was 7/8 Pinzguaer 1/8 Ayrshire.. So his heifers had a lot of milk! He was an amazing bull! I had his hide tanned when he finally over did himself spring breeding season back in the 80's! This brings back fond memories! Congrats on your job well done! I've become a new subscriber!

I'm hoping that wasn't a derogatory comment. Because if they don't step in, in these types of situations. The calf will get to big to push on their own. And or will die! Then momma can die! It's actually safer this way to, because when momma is laying down they can sometimes, especially when the calves are to big they over strain and push so hard they end up pushing their uterus out. Obviously if man did not intervene. U could see how that could lead to problems rather quickly! Momma cows die all the time from delivering their babies. When they do, it's almost always because they didn't have help. As soon as the calf is born. They need to stand momma up to get the uterus to drop back down into the abdomen. Ijs, it's definitely a very good thing to do in these cases. Even if it's a normal birth. It's always good to be present. Just in case, if possible obviously! Bcuz u just never know...
