[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1288966, member: 24027"] Is this cow new to you? If not, is her behavior different from prior years? And is her udder/teats full? Our girls tend to get very affectionate towards us but fighting other cows in their 3rd trimester & spend a lot of time at the protein tub. They'll wander off looking for a good place to calve but generally not until they're almost to their due date. There's always the possibility she's closer to 9 months. I agree with MistyMorning that it's probably not anything to worry about - unless you just have a bad feeling that something's just not right. Trust your gut. We've had preemies, some a complete surprise but two of them we just knew something was up & brought the cows to the barn & were able to save the calves (both heifers, one is bred w/her 4th calf & the other a 1st calver).
