Starting a new thread of the new calving season.
Not a nice start. The only pure lim cow and even lost her first heifer due to bloat two weeks ago. Now second calving- dead twin bulls. Found one born dead already. Second had his water bag out, got him out quickly, but he was dead too. 279 days gestation. Will keep a cow dry. She lost a significant amount of weight during the last week or so, so there's no point in putting a new calf with her if we want to have her back incalf quickly.
She had no signs yesterday that she was so close to calving.
