No. The calf will have long started to decompose inside her. Once or if you try to take that dead calf out of her, a massive amount of toxins will enter her bloodstream and kill her in minutes. She may already have started signs of toxicity in her system that you haven't even noticed yet. Either way, get her put down, it'll be in the best interest of the cow.

Besides, you shouldn't have let her get this far along with a dead calf in her anyway, either you are not properly watching your calving cows or she slipped off somewhere where it was much difficult for you to even see if she was calving or not.

How do you get a beef cow to accept a calf that isn't hers?

The best thing you can do is to skin the dead calf of that beef cow's, and drape it over the orphan calf's body so that you trick the cow into thinking that that calf is hers. But this will only work if you have that cow's dead calf on hand and not if that cow doesn't have a calf or if you're wanting to put another calf on that cow. Other tricks include smearing cod liver oil or perfume or some other strong-smelling solution that's not poisonous to the cow nor calf over the cow's nose and all over the back and head of the calf, putting a dog in with the cow and the calf, etc.

If she has given birth to a stillborn calf or aborted a calf, she may ovulate 14 to 16 days after calving. However, you shouldn't get her bred again until 45 to 60 days after calving, to allow complete involution (or shrinking of the uterus).

How many days will a cow lactate after her calf dies?

A newborn calf shouldn't go for more than an hour or two without his first milk. After a few hours or even 24 hours go by, the calf's system will be less able to absorb the immunoglobins and antibodies provided by the colostrum than he would if he nursed immediately after birth. Without milk at all, a calf may live to around 5 to 6 days before it dies of dehydration.


After a cow calves should you milk her or not?

It depends. Is she a beef cow or dairy cow? Are you wanting to keep the cow with the calf or separating the calf from the cow? Usually with beef cows you don't bother with milking them unless you have to because the calf isn't up and suckling soon after birth and you want to encourage the calf to be up and suckling, or to get some milk from a cow or heifer that won't accept her calf right away to feed that calf with. With dairy cows, though, if you've separated the calf from the cow right away, it's ideal to milk that cow to collect the colostrum to feed that calf--and other calves--to the benefit of the calf's health. But, if you are wanting to keep the calf with the cow for a couple of days, then no, it's not necessary.


When is a good time to let the bull in with the mother cow and calf?
