I wanted to share a fun calving experience we had this season. I've always been interested in trying this upside-down and backwards extraction method for a calf, and we finally had the right situation to give it a try!

It took a few attempts to get the come-along positioned just right, but once we did, we started pulling. I made sure to protect the calf by placing my hand under its tail to prevent it from catching on the pelvis during the extraction. As you can see in the photos, the calf actually rolled as we pulled it out, which was a great sign. Overall, the method worked great!

Ranchers that are willing to try something different make our job fun!
