Beef

The first step in providing assistance during calving  is assessing the problem. There are several common situations encountered when delivering a calf. In a normal delivery, the calf’s forelegs and head protrude first about 70 percent of the time. The other 30 percent of the time, the calf’s hind legs and tail come first. In this case, always make sure the tail is protruding with the hind legs.
