Had a cow have a perfectly normal healthy calf one time. A couple weeks later she started looking sickly and when I drove by her she smelled like death. Got her in the pen and put her in the chute. Put on a palpation glove and when in to check things out. I pulled out a dead twin bone by bone. Took me a while to find all the hooves. Hide came out in several pieces and the hair was already slipping. I wore that smell on my arm for months. Lesson learned that palpation gloves will let the smell pass through. That is the single worst experience I’ve ever had in all my life of working with livestock

How about checking on a heifer that's been calving awhile only to finally see the feet coming out soles up☹️
Get her in the chute only to pull a dead calf
Yeah, I saved the heifer but damn that was a nice calf to give to the coyotes.

Or better yet
A cow is not progressing past the front feet so I get her in
Find two front feet and two rear feet
OK, I have twins so try to push one back in while pulling other one out.
No go, will not separate.
So this is what I cut out.
One body, two calves each going opposite directions

If I die in my sleep tonight the missus can put on my gravestone
Good long life, he may not have seen it all but he saw a helluva lot.

I have never tried this but a cowboy told me that to push calves back in, hang the cow by her back feet and gravity will allow the calf to fall back in so you can get it out easier. Also if you don't want the cow to push against you stick a 14 gauge needle in her windpipe. Never tried that either. That is a freak show calf right there.

It's a talent. And I'm particularly capable. I can be walking down the street, minding my own business, not even looking at anyone and someone will get pissed at me. Yep, it's a talent and I am truly talented. Don't know whether to be proud, sad or simply mystified. But I am who I am.
