There shouldn't be too much risk involved, especially if you abort early enough so that the heifer doesn't have trouble pushing it out. Most cases she should be able to come back into heat and be rebred. Have a vet check her out first though (if you haven't already) in case she has an abnormal pelvic opening or if the calf's too big to have her abort out on her own.
