[QUOTE="bward, post: 357805, member: 48"] We had a 3 year herf prolapse her vagina and she too was also close to calving.... but when? We took her to the vet and he repaired the mess stitching her up good and gave her a shot of DMSO ( I beleive). He instructed us to cut the stitches near the end of 48 hours as that is approx when she should calve according to the effects of the shot. I don't remember the exact hours it was, but we removed the stitches and the next morning there was a calf on the ground. She won't prolapse again without a full term baby in there so we let her raise the calf to weaning. When we shipped her in the fall, we marked the manifest 'slaughter only', and they announce that during the sale. In fact we always mark our culls as slaughter only. [/QUOTE]
