Had a heifer with a dead calf last weekend. She calved 12 days early, calf been dead 24/48 hours.
Stand to lose quite a bit of money on her if sold fat so considered bulling her and giving her another chance.
She's a right good heifer but on the day it transpired she was long inside but not overly wide. The calf definitely wasn't small (averaged sized) but couldn't come out back so csec. Was an endy decent bull calf so she bred well.
She went stone mad when we were handling her but that's totally out of character. Had her 15 months and she's nornally quiet enough you could walk right up to her.
Keep or road? I only run a few so a loss like this is devastating to me financially.
