The Utrecht Technique
If your heifer or cow needs assistance calving, helping her deliver the way nature intended can lead to more success.
That being said, anyone who calves out heifers will likely have to assist one every so often. The Utrecht technique that he learned about 30 years ago from Bob Mortimer at Colorado State University is the easiest way to deliver a calf, in my opinion. It’s easy on the human, the cow and the calf. So despite the cow looking a little tied up, the technique named after our city is the best! Strange but true.
